> Just ask the Palestinians if land is fungible.

That analogy would only make sense if Palestinians were being offered similarly-sized and similarly-resourced land, to compensate for what was taken away from them at the beginning of the Nakba 70 years ago.

Except, they're not. The land was seized, with no new land provided in return. Over time, more and more has been occupied and taken away from Palestine.
