How long do Israelis have to live there before it's considered "their" land? Never? Could not that whole argument be applied to all of Israel? This gets much more complex once you push past the bumpersticker bromides.

If they are going to make it officially part of Israel, then they need to give the Palestinians the right to vote and participate in the political process. Continuing indefinitely in occupation status while continuing to incrementally confiscate homes, farms, property, and water from people in a densely populated region is immoral.
