"1947 - They were offered peace"...... yaddada, yadda, yaddada.
The voice of Imperialism rides again
They were given S.F.A. that they weren't already entitled to by right of the fact that they had occupied the land for generations -millenia in fact.
The Empire partitioned the territory without obtaining satisfactory agreement from either side, pissed off (to the sound of gunfire and grenade explosions and left the occupants to sort out a mess centuries caused by Imperial exploitation - as it did all over the globe.
The world is still trying to cope with that mess
Formerly Rule Britannia (as usual)
You make returning property to its rightful owners sound like Fatherr Christmas coming down the chimney
