My understanding is that they lived on the land and it was their cultural home. They collectively owned 44% of the land with other Arabs as state- owned (public land). The Jews owned 7 %.The majority was owned through a British mandate. So you are only partially correct. And a chunk of the land was given to Jordan for the Palestinians to live. So compensation is complicated because Jordan could be considered partial compensation as well as land they were able to keep. Regardless, none of what you said matters RIGHT NOW when there is a humanitarian crisis and ethnic cleansing going on in the land they still own.. That needs to stop. There needs to be an end of killing and driving people off their land before figuring out compensation.
