I would disagree. If you go back far enough, every land has been stolen. There is probably no piece of land that hasn’t been held by multiple different groups over time.
I’d also argue a government existing at all is stolen land. What gives them the right to the land, instead of the people using it as they want? At some point someone decided the land was theirs, and not someone else’s, and decided they could sell, lend, or use the land as they want, even if someone else also wanted to use it.

It’s not an unfortunate fait accompli like the US that eradicated the original inhabitants for instance.

Someone made the same point so answered this already to show it is an invalid argument in the case of Palestine.
