The funny thing is that all the seven billion people in the world will not even fill up the Grand Canyon in the United States not to talk of one single state in America. Yes, we are that tiny. There is so much land all over the world uninhabited. So I am really surprised when I see people killing themselves over land, like in Israel and Palestine. It makes no geographical sense, for those of us in love with geography. So much space all over. For example, the Rub al-Khali (Empty Quarter) in Saudi Arabia is the largest sand desert in the world, it is bigger than many African nations combined and it is very sparsely populated. I wonder why people kill themselves over a few miles of land. Afterall, we are all migrants and no one actually originally owns any land anywhere on earth.
We all migrated one way or the other.
