Why the fuck does the colonial power dictate who “gets” land?

The land was stolen from the local farmers and fishermen and given to Europeans.

For the same reason all land ownership across the world and across the ages and across all animal species has been determined.

So you believe might makes right?

I don’t.

[riazrizvi]

The reality that a contested position is determined by whoever can assert the claim, isn't a moral choice, it's simply an observable political fact.

[Gud]

No it isn’t.

There are many plots of land belonging to people with limited military power.

Iceland is a pretty good example.

Palestine was stolen by Europeans with powerful backers, a statement you then agree with?
