God gave every human being a land. It's called Earth. We are expected to share it.

Hey Biomimetik, the term "goyim" is simply a Yiddish word meaning non-Jews. It's not a negative term nor does it have a negative connotation. As for the reason that Muslims occupy the temple mount, it's just because they occupied the land after the Jews did. (The Jews had the land before the Romans and the Palestinians moved in when the Ottomans came.)
God promised the Jews Israel, but he never physically gave anything. Like most places, Israel was owned by whoever conquered it. The only exception was in 1948, when a U.N. vote gave parts of the British mandate to the areas with a Jewish majority.

Are you speaking in the present or the ancient passed????
Presently the lands occupied by Israel were taken from the occupants of some 60 years past. This is the issue of so much strife in recent years.
The lands promised to Abraham and the people that followed Moses out of Egypt was lost. The reason they lost it was they turned away from God to follow the pagan ways of the world.
The final chasing of the Jews out of Jerusalem came during the reign of the Roman Emperor Hadrian...At which time Jews were forbade to even come within sight of the city. And so they were scattered and landless..
All land currently held by any nation was wrenched at some time in the past from some other inhabitants.
So just get use to it...it will probably happen again.

GOD gave land to jews and if you read in the bible the territory is reaching Iran. We just have not use all of our promissed land . You would not want to accuse GOD of breaking his promisses right? So to make GOD looks good so he can keep his promisses, we will need to take over the mid east.

God (if there is one) gave NO NATION lands. Lands were fought over and split and divided among many, many groups/tribes/nations. The ME is just a turf war with heavy religious overtones. PEACE!
