Gaza and the West Bank:

As far as Palestine goes the only powers ever to have "invaded and "occupied" those territories and held their rightful owners under any form of subjugation since 1948 when the Mandated Territory of Palestine ceased to exist were Egypt and Jordan who invaded and occupied Gaza and the West Bank respectively and held them for nearly twenty years. The land was Palestinian, yet neither the Egyptians or the Jordanians let Palestinians settle there, instead they shut them up in camps on what was their own land.
