Well they had a country until the US and UK stepped in...

They've literally never had a country. Went from Roman to various foreign Islamic states (plus a crusader kingdom and the Mongols briefly) to Ottoman to British to part of Egypt (Gaza) and Jordan (West Bank) to current situation.

Either way, it's weird that leftists will say every culture deserves their own land/country except Europeans...

Palestine existed before the Israeli occupation and annexation of their territory. Palestine is an internationally recognized sovereign state.
