They have been attacked non stop since their state was created by either actual states or by terrorist whom those same states refuse to do anything about.
Going back and forth as to who's land this or that was prior will never solve anything. However the biggest reason I support Israel over the Palestine's is because even if the state had been created for Palestine, the Arabs still would have never accepted the right for he Jewish state to exist.
While the boarders might be a bit different if it had been created, I don't really think there would be peace there regardless. Hence the reason I see Israel doing what they have to do as a country to survive. Sadly that creates a on going circle of fighting that will continue for who knows how long.
IMO in this overall situation the Arabs are the aggressors be it by actual wars or by individual terrorism. Until the Arabic world can change it's views on the right for Israel to exist then there will always be fighting as Israel will have to fight to survive.

I agree with you.
If my neighbor moves his fence back ten feet on to my property, I can't shoot him.
Israel is doing what it wants with it's borders and is slowly taking land that does not belong to them. However, it seems to me that no one owns that land because Palestine is not a country. The only thing they can do is stop this bullshit and quickly form a country so that official borders can be recognized. Otherwise, they will continue to have their land taken away from under their feet.
