Analysis
The set of maps shows a century of expulsion of Palestinians from their homeland.
Palestine has existed for millennia as a country under various overlords.
But Israel claims, disingenuously, that the land cannot properly be called "Palestinian".
Their reasoning? Much of the land in Palestine was state owned.
So, by such "logic", US-state-owned land cannot properly be called "American"
