      I believe he is implying Israel removed the state from Palestine.

        No, I was implying there never was a state of Palestine, only Palestinians living in Palestinian territories

          That’s just as dumb as saying there was never any Native American states because it doesn’t fit my/western definitions of what qualifies as a state. Therefore those people have no entitlement to land or life.

                There never was a state called Palestine, the British took control of the land from the Ottomans. The Ottomans had controlled the land for centuries and before them the Syrians

      There are “Palestinian territories” but no functioning state matching eg the definition of statehood declared in the 1933 Montevideo Convention.
