Yes. Just about anywhere, you can find that any piece of land used to belong to someone else. I live on land that rightfully belongs to the Lenape Nation. They no doubt believed in their divine right to live here as well. Of course, their treatment by European settlers was reprehensible, and beoynd excuse. Still, I don't plan to give up my home. I would not expect an Israeli to give up his home, but he would be wise to note that there are a number of people that take exception to his presence. Nothing anti-semetic about it. But, such is the story of the Middle East. Why anyone would want to live in such a place is beyond me.
