> under international law whoever takes land and keeps it becomes indigenous after 400 years

- Who made those laws and what gives them the right to decide which land belongs to whom? Why 400? Why not 409 or 367? So that Palestinians have until 399 to restore their lands and on 400 New Year's Eve it's over? If the UN decided that whoever takes my home and keeps it for 10 years belong to him then should I accept that?

> the UN has said that a country can't keep land it has taken in warfare...only Israel is allowed to get away with it

- The UN was created after the Jews had already arrived and expelled the Palestinians and when there was no Palestinian state recognized by it. So legally speaking (legally, not ethically) Israel did not break the international "law". The Golan Heights have been taken in warfare from Syria (which was recognized by the UN) and therefore the UN had to issue a resolution demanding it to withdraw...
