While it is true that many countries have conquered or absorbed territories of their neighbors, they have always extended citizenship to the inhabitants. The people that live in those portions of Brazil taken from Paraguay are citizens of Brazil. Israelis wants to have it both ways, they want the land but not the people. joe

This article, by Pravda Online reports that Argentina, despite US and Israel pressure, had recognized Palestine as a state in its pre-1967 borders.
However, what is interesting are the remarks of Israeli politician Avigdor Eskin, who posits the possibility of Brazil breaking up into 6 or 7 pieces, mentions how Brazil took half of Paraguay's territory and therefore, that territory is subject to reclamation by Paraguay. He compares the returning territories to the Palestinians like asking the Russians to return Koenigsberg (now Kaliningrad) to Germany.
With about 300,000 jews, Argentina has one of the worlds largest Jewish populations. Despite all the influence and power that number signifies, Eskin indicates that it was the Argentinian-Arab population that brought pressure on the government to recognize Palestine.
Eskin's comments should be read analytically, to get an idea of what will be another -propaganda- line of defense for Israel.http://english.pravda.ru/world/americas/08-12-2010/116106-argentina_brazil-0/
