The problem here is terminology. It's not occupied; it's disputed. It's always been disputed. There's never been a single UN resolution saying that this is Palestine. It's been owned by Egypt and by Israel. There's never been a country there.
It's a territory whose ownership is in dispute. To go and accept the word "occupied" is both false and giving in to propaganda.
