It has to be remembered that Israel was our main allies in the Middle East when the majority of Arab nations were sided with the Soviet Union. It also has to be remembered that the Soviets oppressed the Christians and the Jews, but gave Islam free reign. Also while the Arabs say they were there first, there has been a Jewish presence when Israel is now going back to antiquity, and while Rome did scatter the Jews, even after 73 C.E. there remained a Jewish presence there. The Arabs want to deny this, but it has been proved via archaeological findings. The Arabs are NOT innocent in this at all, they are not Victims at all. Jordan was created by the Arabs to prevent Palestine from being located there. All of this anti-Jews, and US nonsense is Arab propaganda.
It also has to be noted that we have never supported Israel by putting our troops into their war. This is not the same for the Arabs. We have put our troops on the ground to keep them out of the fire.

It's hard to say. The Indians would probably say America is not legit or you could say Iraq or Iran or Pakistan or Bangladesh or Russia or Poland or any number of other countries carved up and divided by the powers that ruled when they were formed are not countries. Palestine was not a country until Israel was formed. It had nothing but nomads and sheep herders. Life is funny and cruel at the same time, we believe what were told if we listen long enough. Radical Islam will not stop until the world is burning.

More than all others, Israel was given by God thousands of years ago and reclaimed in 1948 By a small band of Jews with only two artillery pieces outnumbered 100s to 1.

UN Res 181 says yes.
BTW, it was a British protectorate from 1918 to 1948. So, at the time, it wasn't "Arab Lands". Before that it was part of the Ottoman (Turkish) Empire.

YES, it is a legitimate country.
Us American's are living on the land inhabited by Indians first so I don't know where we can gripe about the Isreal people occupying arab lands.....

There were Jews living there for thousands of years, dummy. It was made a state in 1948 and YES, it is legitimate- probably more so than you!

Jews have been living in that area since Roman times and before, long before Islam.
