The Bible and other historical texts show the land in question to have belonged to the Israelites/Jews for thousands of years before it belonged to any Arabs. Study the history of Abraham and Isaac. The Arabs are an offshoot of the Jews and lived peacefully with them until Mohammed brought his "religion of peace" into this world.

I found the information from the link below to be interesting.
It is my understanding there there were always some Jews in Israel, the numbers may have varied, but I don't believe they were ever totally gone.
Here is a little piece of the article...
The homeland that Britain said it would set aside consisted of all of what is now Israel and all of what was then the nation of Jordan - the whole thing. That was what Britain promised to give the Jews in 1917.

First off Eli you are wrong! Never in the history of the world, 4500 years of Egyptian history, has there ever been a country called Palestine!
Secondly there have been Jewish people living in this region for over 3000 years, again historical fact. Roman, Greek, Persian, Babylon, and others have stated this in their history.
Lastly because of these powers scattering the Jewish people throughout the known world many of them were taken into captivity by them and made to live in the aforementioned ruling powers country.

That was and is Palestine
After WWII there were millions of Jews displaced by Germany, the western powers instead of dealing with it in the normal way like they did with all others, they 'created' the state of Israel on Palestinian land in control of the British empire. Naturally the Palestinians said no way no how, they started fighting for their land and well... they are still at it.
