Saw this beautiful summary on Pinterest regarding Israel and it’s supposed “occupation”:
The name of the area was Judea and Samaria from biblical times until 1950, when Jordan occupied the area, renaming it "the West Bank".
All Jews living in Judea and Samaria were either killed or forced out of the area during Jordan's illegal occupation of the area which started in 1948.
Judea was renamed "Syria Palestina" by the romans in an attempt to minimize Jewish identification with the land of Israel. This is where the term "Palestine" derives from.
No independent Arab or Palestinian state ever existed in the geographical area once known as
"Palestine".
Jerusalem has never been the capital of any Arab entity or nation. In fact, it has never been the capital of any other nation except Israel.
