In any reasonable legal system, in any fair legal system land that has been lived on for 70 years by the same families, land that has no other claim to prior ownership would be deeded to them, under English Common Law the land would have been given to them after 20 years, this is the state of Israel ####ing some poor family over because they are Arab, nothing more, it's your country Pointman, if you are happy living wth a Government that just steals families land because they are arab I guess you are in the right country but if I was Israeli I would hang my head in shame, I would protest the utter depravity of the act

That's exactly what happened. But if you have any sources to the contrary, I'm willing to read them
