The Palestinians have passed by several opportunities to have a state and make peace.
Greeks were drowning inside the port of Smyrna, while American, British and European Red Cross ships were refusing them to board. Greeks lost a territory 3 times the size of Greece in Asia Minor, Pontos, Cappadokia. Jews lost their homes in an area about the size of half the planet. The Turks lost almost all their European, African and Saudi holdings. The Greek nation up until 1920 was spread across 3 continents and 7 seas. We used to run Odessa, Istanbul, Izmir, Cappadokia, Alexandria, Pontos, Jerusalem up until less than 100 years ago. Now we just run Athens and Thessaloniki. The Jews were prominent from Tajikistan to Germany to Morocco. Now, we are both concentrated and packed in a little tiny piece of land that is about 100 times less than before, while the Arab/Muslim world is still expanding(though it has no space for Palestinians). People have just lost the real measure of things.
Arabs in Palestine refuse to let go of a tiny strip of land for 70 years.
Greece gave up, Thrace, Pontos, Asia Minor, Cappadokia, Northern Epirus, Istanbul(literally our capital for about 2000 years for crying out loud!!!) areas with several millions of Greek people, businesses, homes, smiles and children just to make peace.
The Arab world cannot give up a few square miles to make peace? Why, can we all give up our land and homes in the altar of peace, but the Arabs can never give anything up? They lost, not 1 but several wars. At which point exactly, do they come to terms with that?

Would you give up Greece to those with more money and more power? Let us say the Turks really like Greek land and they beef up their military and plan to invade and take over Greece? They come in with overwhelming force with Yankee money and weapons? All ethnic Greeks got to just get the fuck out? Leave their land behind to wander the deserts of the world for the rest of their existence because might is right....would you do it Noemon?
