I think he wanted to say you should read and heard their version in the original language, because the translation it 'always' a little bit different than the one in the original language.
I'm not really interested in anyone's version. I'm interested in the facts.
Aren't you interested to know the "source" in the original language?
Source for what?

I'm also interested in the facts and I am still saying the israeli government invaded the palestinian land.
It is more accurate to say that the Arabs (Palestinians) attacked and tried to invade Israel. As a response, Israel was forced to make use of military occupation. Israel didn't even want to touch the West Bank originally. It was only after Jordan annexed it and used it to stage attacks on Israel that Israel was forced to occupy it in order to defend itself.

This is one of the fact that I am arguing here, there are a lot of other facts.
It is not clear what you are arguing based on these maps. Care to elaborate? The facts behind the maps show that they are a result of Israel being forced to defend itself. You may notice how the West Bank and Gaza were occupied by Jordan and Egypt respectively as well. Another fact is that the map only shows part of the Palestine Mandate area. Why is Jordan not included? That is highly misleading, as it paints a false picture of how the area was divided. The Arabs already got the majority of the Palestine Mandate when Jordan was given to them a few years before Israel declared independence.

Any country on the planet in Israel's position would do the same thing. Or probably worse. Israel has shown amazing restraint at times. For example, they never even wanted to occupy the West Bank, but it then turned out that the area was key for attackers who wanted to destroy Israel. The Golan Heights even more so. Anyone who controls the Golan Heights will be able to target any part of Israel, and will put Israel at a huge strategic and military disadvantage.
