Many Christians, most of which reside in USA say that Israelis are chosen people of god and the land of Israel belongs to them because of a promise given to them in the Torah. Many Americans say this without observing an obvious contradiction. By this definition or justification the land that Americans live on today belongs to Native Americans. North America was stolen from the Native Americans and has since been colonialized by foreign peoples. I wonder how accepting you Americans would be if the Native Americans decided to take back their land by force, from you, without any compensation. It was, by gods design their land before it was stolen by Europeans. If the logic of "Chosen people" and "promised land" is your justification for what is happening in Israel, then stand by your words and give your land back to the people it belongs to, the Indians.You expect the Palistinians to give the land to the Israelis, without payment, but you wouldn't give up your homes to Indians for free.
