<p>The Arabs conquered Old Israel from the Jews quite a long time ago, so the UN used that to base Israel reclaiming their land, even though the UN could have done it in a 'nicer' method instead of making the uprooting of current palestinian settlements so fast which led to the wars, coupled with the fact that the Arabs who had lived there since they conquered it from the Jewish people viewed it now as "their" land....</p>
<p>south africa, colombia, venezuela, pakistan, afghanistan, iraq, iran, more than half of africa, haiti, and last but not least luxembourg....its really depends on the part of the country</p>

<p>Well, if you're going to argue that way, the Persian Empire had it before there were any Jews.</p>
<p>I suppose Italy could argue too that Europe belongs to Italy since Rome held Europe as its colonies for over 500 years. Borders are a complicated and extremely sensitive matter >_<</p>
<p>Yemen is one scary place. In fact, I think those folks, when they are not completely high on qat, or maybe due to the qat, have been stuck in a timewarp. So 9th century there.</p>
<p>France would be a close second for me, despite their existence in this millennia.</p>

<p>I recently visited Afghanistan and Iran this past summer...and, let me say, that iran was HEAVEN compared to afghanistan. I didn't see the exaggerated anti-American feeling that the press gives off, but I did see some and most were directed towards Israel. Afghanistan just...I never want to go back there. EVER. Sure, the mountains were beautiful and some of the people were really nice, but talk about poverty and terror in everyday life...</p>
