UN General Assembly Calls on Israeli Occupation to Withdraw from Syrian GolanIsrael isn't occupying anything.
They've stepped way over and out of their lines since 1948, but hey, propaganda much?
Israel has never been the aggressor in any war they've gained territory in the course of, and they have given up much of the land they've taken as a result of being attacked. They returned the Sinai to Egypt, there is not a single Jew in Gaza, and the PLO controls the West Bank.We've been over this: you don't get to keep territory that you gained in conflict, This incentivizes war (and apparently israelis).
In his book "The Invention Of The Jewish People" Israeli author Shlomo Sand, a Jewish professor of history from Tel Aviv University, makes the compelling case for the majority of Israeli (and all?) Jewish peoples being descendants of European converts and that the actual, Semitic Jewish people mainly converted to Islam during the time of Mohammed. This would indicate that todays Palestinian Semites are descendants of the Biblical Prophetic linage and therefore, of the family of Jesus as he was a Palestinian Jewish man and rabbi.Israel has never been the aggressor in any war they've gained territory in the course of, and they have given up much of the land they've taken as a result of being attacked.

So the only thing they can be said to be occupying, and which is technically Syrian, and not "Palestinian", territory, is the Golan Heights. To give up the "occupied" Golan would mean that Syrian tanks would be able to sit up there and lob shells at Israeli civilians, just like they used to. Since Syria and Israel are still pretty much at war with each other, Israel has every right to hold that land until peace can be made with Syria.
I was told by a Jewish person once that ruining olive trees is specifically forbidden and starving out your enemies was also forbidden. They were really disgusted by an incident regrading a grove of olive trees that was destroyed.The Sadists Who Destroyed a Decades-old Palestinian Olive Grove Can Rest Easy
