    Generous like giving 55% of the land to jews when they only owned 7% and who was recent foreigner that came from all over the world? Putin is claiming that ukraine didn’t exists and was part of russia. So there’s no difference between israel and russia excuses

      They only owned 7%, because they were LEGALLY second class citizens with fewer rights and privileges than Muslims.

      In the case of Ukraine, only Russia is disputing the borders. In the case of Israel/Palestine, almost nobody agrees on borders. There’s a massive list of different borders over the years, and there’s never been agreement on any of them.

        The international community agree with the pre 1967 borders. Arabs didn’t have any privileges over jews.

          The international community doesn’t agree on the 1967 borders, some specific countries do. It’s still in dispute among others, including by groups of Palestinians.

          And yes, the Muslims did have more privileges, primarily they paid less tax. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dhimmi
