You deserve
a factual look at . . .
Who owns the "West Bank"?
The ancient lands of Judea and Samaria, east of Jerusalem, have
been part of the Jewish homeland for 3,000 years. Today Arabs demand all
of it.
Judea and Samaria, the land where
Jewish ancestors Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Rachel, David and Solomon created
Biblical history, was renamed the "West Bank" during Jordan's brief,
illegal 19-year occupation. Today, some 380,000 Jews own land and live in
the territory, yet their rights are denied by Palestinian Arabs.
What are the facts?
Following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire after Wold War
I, the Allied Powers, which were the only parties with the right or power to
resolve ownership of vast tracts of the Middle East, allotted to the Jewish
people the land west of the Jordan River, including Judea and
Samaria. This resolution, made at the San Remo Conference, was effected
through the Mandate for Palestine, which was adopted by the League of Nations
in 1922 and assumed by the United Nations in 1948. This document, based
on "the historical connection of the Jewish people with Palestine,"
secured "the establishment of the Jewish national home."
Nothing since 1922 has changed the legal status of those internationally binding
documents.
Much of the land
allocated to the Jews, including most of Judea and Samaria, was taken from them
by Egypt, Iraq, Jordan and Syria following Israel's War of Independence in
1948, when the Jewish state was attacked by those Arab nations - the latter
three of which were also established by the Mandate for Palestine. Jordan
illegally seized the "West Bank" and East Jerusalem, and expelled all
Jews from these Biblical homelands.
In fact, the territories of
Judea and Samaria have never been part of any nation except the Jewish
state. In 1967, when it was again attacked
by Arab armies, Israel defeated the invaders and recovered the occupied
"West Bank" from Jordan. It should be noted that during
Jordan's occupation of the "West Bank," no Arab Palestinian movement
emerged in favor of independence. Indeed, it wasn't until Israel
reclaimed the land and Jews returned to their ancestral home that claims of
Jewish "occupation" were raised.
Today, most land
in present-day Judea and Samaria is not privately owned, but rather is
unsurveyed - without proven ownership. Israel claims about 30% of the
public land in the territory. However, the Supreme Court of Israel has
ruled that unsurveyed land in Judea and Samaria can be acquired by Arabs who
cultivate it consistently. Arabs, through deed and cultivation rights,
own about 95% of private land in the territory. Jews, however, are not
granted similar rights, so Jewish farming on unsurveyed land does not entitle
Jews to private ownership. Nonetheless, Jews own about 5 % of all private
land in Judea and Samaria.
Israel
offers land for peace. Israel has a clear, millennia-old historical
claim to Judea and Samaria, and it reacquired the territories defending itself
against an aggressive war. In addition, Israel has an irrefutable legal
claim to these territories backed by the 95-year old San Remo Resolution.
Nonetheless, recognizing that its claims are disputed by Arab neighbors, the
Jewish state has shown uncommon willingness to share the land.
Starting in
1967, following the Six-Day War, Israel has offered to give up almost all the
land it controls in the "West Bank" - plus a Palestinian capital in
the eastern part of Jerusalem - in exchange for peace. Unfortunately,
despite numerous such land-for-peace overtures by Israel, including two most
recently in 2000 and 2008, the Arabs have consistently rejected them.
Not only do
the Arabs reject any Jewish claims to land in Judea and Samaria, they have also
insisted during peace negotiations that the territory be made judenrein - free
of Jews. Worse, many Palestinians Arabs, such as the terror group Hamas,
maintain that the entire land of Palestine - from the Jordan River to the
Mediterranean Sea, including all of Israel and the "West Bank" - belongs
only to Arabs. Today, official Palestinian maps do not depict the state
of Israel.
How will
the dispute over Judea and Samaria be resolved? Over Israel's 67
years, it has become a world-class cultural, economic and military power.
Its standard of living id among the highest in the Middle East. Clearly
the Jewish state is here to stay. Yet despite its strength, Israel has
shown willingness to negotiate and exchange land for peace. Sadly, this
willingness has not been matched by Palestinian leadership. Until such
negotiations are consummated, the "West Bank" will remain in dispute
- a no-man's land in which claims of ownership remain cloudy and contested.
While Israel has clear rights to
ownership of Judea and Samaria - also known as the "West Bank" - it has
taken a practical position offering to trade those rights and that land for
peace with its Arab neighbors. As of yet, however, tragically, no
Palestinian leader has been willing to compromise his people's unrealistic
expectation that all of Palestine - from the river to the sea - belongs only to
Arabs.

The
following article by Rabbi Marvin Hier can be found on pg. 2 in INMOTION,
Summer 2015, Vol. 1 Issue 10 publication from the Simon Wiesenthal Center.
During the
past few months, world leaders gathered to commemorate the 70th anniversary of
the liberation of the Nazi concentration camps and the end of World War
II. : In 1933, when Adolf Hitler became chancellor of the Third
Reich, the world was shocked. Nobody expected that they would govern
Germany. But rather than confront the Nazis, the prevalent view of both
the leaders of Europe and the United States was to reach out and attempt to
engage them. Their reasoning was clear - by welcoming Hitler as a
full-fledged partner in the new Europe, the Fuhrer and his followers could be
convinced to mitigate their racist and anti-Semitic ideology. Only
Winston Churchill saw through the veneer and knew instinctively that hate
mongers and despots are unlikely candidates for change. : But Britain and the United States were then very much in
the appeasement mode. The US, despite Nazi Germany's persecution of Jews,
fully supported sending the US Olympic team to the Hitler-sponsored Olympics. : Six years after the Berlin Olympics ended Hitler began his
"Final Solution". When the War ended, the Nazis in places like
Treblinka, Majdanek and Auschwitz murdered six million Jews, one-third of all
the Jews in the world. Between fifty and eighty million people lost their
lives.
: What lessons can we learn from these, seventy years
later? We can learn that ideologues remain ideologues. That despite
all the meetings with world leaders, despite the fact that Hitler hosted 1936
Olympics and the whole world came to Berlin, it had absolutely no impact on
mitigating Hitler's worldview. In the end, he did exactly what he wrote
in a September 16, 1919 signed letter in the possession of the Simon Wiesenthal
Center and on display at the Museum of Tolerance, in which he said, "Its
final aim, however, must be the uncompromising removal of the Jews." : This year, as we mark
the 70th anniversary of the end of World War II, these are crucial lessons to
remember as we engage Iran (see next page for details about my meeting with
President Obama).
: A Simon Wiesenthal
Center recent acquisition is an original document written by Israel's founding
Prime Minister, David Ben-Gurion, in which he says, "An American leader in
the future could say, after a failure, 'I made a mistake. I did not
understand the real intention of the Arab leaders." : We cannot afford to make mistakes on this decisive issue
nor can we allow any power in the world to compel us to make fateful
errors.
: On this 70th anniversary of the end of the Nazi regime, the
memory of the holocaust is best preserved when we refuse to repeat our
mistakes.

Added note: Let's be very
mindful of Iran today - they have consistently advocated the death to
Israel! Let's have a strong Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard
and a strong intelligence community and help protect Israel against any and all
threats from Iran, or any other country!
