"Occupied territories are Palestine"

[S.A.M.]

Facebook is caught up in a row with Israeli settlers on the West Bank. Jewish settlers reacted angrily when the auto-complete function on Facebook finished their addresses on the West Bank as being in "Palestine".

Facebook now offers the "Israel" option for major settlements, even though the West Bank is not in Israel - however, some settlements are still auto-completing with Palestine.

Another group - admittedly, one with only 43 members so far - has formed on the social networking site to demand that Facebook remove any reference to Palestine because it is not a country.

So was occupied India really Britain? Not India? Should the "history" of occupied India be British history?

What is the status of the West Bank? Is it "Israel" or Occupied Palestine?

its either the IDF or hamas. i suggest you read prof. oman words on the conflict. he is a religious mathematician, who said that there couldnt be peace between us and the palestinians at present day, but only in the future there can be a palestinian state. although i disagree with hes conclusion, it is very insightful to hear this from a religious individual.
