Nope based on the UN and Great Britain.
Britain got the land after the Ottomans were defeated in WWI and the land was basically a colony.

Palastine was little more than a desert before the Israelis built the cities and orchards. Now every arab wants it. 90% of Palastinians are actually from either Jordan or Lebanon. The displaced ones left themselves during the 1947 war (when Israel was unprovokably attacked by 5 arab nations), hoping they could come back again when all the Jews were dead, or so they were told. Palastine never belonged to the Palastinians, most were just nomadic arabs at the time Israel was formed. There was never a nation of Palastine at any time in history. Israel, however, was a nation as long ago as 1,200 BC, but it was wiped out by the Romans in 70 AD. Remarkably, the Israeli people survived for 2,000 years as a race without a country. No one else has done that.

The Palestinians and their supporters (Iran between them) desire all the land. Their appropriate desire is to make Israel non-existent. To wipe Israel off the face of the map. Israel won't in any respect enable itself to alter into subjugated to an Islamic state and the Palestinians will proceed to combat as long as there is an Israel.

There is no simple answer to that question.
The Hebrews were displaced from Judah/Gallillee/Palestine during the Roman Empire. Their descendants in the 1800s decided that if they were ever to be free of oppression in Europe, they needed to return to their homeland. The formal name for the movement that they founded is Zionism.
After the fall of the Ottoman Empire, portions of the Middle East were placed by the newly formed League of Nations under a Mandate (roughly similar to UN Trusteeship). What is now Lebanon and Syria were placed in Mandates under the supervision of France. What is now Iraq, Jordan, and Israel were placed in a Mandates under the supervision of the United Kingdom. At the time of the original Mandate, Palestine was considered to be composed of what is now Israel and Jordan -- but the UK split Jordan into a separate jurisdiction. A large percentage of the population of Jordan is considered to be "Palestinian Arabs."
During the period of the UK Mandate over what is now Israel, there was discussion of establishing a Jewish state in that region and a large number of Jews moved to Palestine to lay the groundwork for a Jewish state.
After World War II, the UK turned the issue of how to deal iwth what was left of Palestine over to the UN. The UN proposed to divide what was left of Palestine into two states -- one Jewish, one Palestinian -- with Jerusalem to be an international city. On May 14, 1948, the UK terminated its mandate and withdrew from Palestine. The Jewish leadership declared their independence as the State of Israel and the Arab neighbors attacked. At the end of the war, Israel had more territory than proposed in the partition plan, and the Arab neighbors (mostly Jordan and Egypt) took what was left of the proposed Palestinian state. The 1949 truce line is the closest thing to an internationally recognized border for Israel.
There have been several wars since the 1948 war, including most significantly the "Six Day War" of 1967. During that war, Israel gained control of the Golan Heights from Syria, the West Bank from Jordan, and the Gaza Strip and Sinai from Egypt.
As a result of a peace treaty in the late 1970s, the Sinai has been returned to Egypt. As part of negotiations with the Palestinians, Israel has withdrawn from Gaza but there is no final treaty between the Palestinians and Israel.

And people like you seem to forget what happened BEFORE 1947 (actually 1948). Like the fact that there never was an independent state of Palestine.

your question and the lines following it make sense. God didnt tell the israeli to take the land. jews were scattered in europe , england , and other places. bulfur made a promise to establish a homeland for them, the palestinians werent equipped to fight the british and the troops of jews who immigrated to palestine. different wars took place. with the political support of britain and the militart assistance of the americans, the israeli won. about the Torah, you will be surprised to know that jewish men of religion have a warning: if the jews vanquish the arabs and take their lands,the DAY OF JUDGEMENT will be due. therefore, israeli politicians stop short of this target because they dont want to put an end to life on earth. this is a fact, trust me.

the earliest known peoples there were called canaanites, and on the coast, phillistines, or phoenicians. There were also some subdivisions of those groups there. such as ammorites, ammonites, hittites, hivites, etc.,etc.,etc....
ALL of these people were wicked from God's view. They practiced satanic sex rites, and sacrificed their OWN children to a demon god of fire called melech, or molech.
God showed Noah's great grandson Abram the land of Canaan, and promised this land to his descendants.
about 600 years later, millions of Israelites came out of slavery in Egypt and conquered Canaan.
after many periods of apostasy, God abandoned Israel to the Gentile nations, and deferred the control of the region to the world powers that might come to be.
That is why since the year 70 A.D., after Rome destroyed Jerusalem and killed 1 million, Jews have been scattered all over asia, africa, and europe ( Islam wasn't invented for another 530 years ). later on when the U.S. was established, they came here as well to escape persecution from Europeans who coveted what wealth they had acquired.
Because they were ONCE God's Chosen Ones, satan uses whatever tools he can to persecute Jews.
satan also is persecuting True Christians because now they are the Chosen Ones of God.
Check out the National Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.of C. for more information on this group of Christians.

Zionism took the Palestinian land based on colonialism. Israel is the last disputed colony in the world after South Africa. Peace is the missing link in the Zionist colony.

I really cannot speak on whether or not the bible says that since I do not have knowledge of what the bible says since I haven't read it. What I can say is that Palestine shouldn't have to give their lands to people who just force themselves there with them having ideaologies of corrupted hidden agendas such as the concept of zionism. Anyhow, since they are there, the best next thing is to provide sources of peace, and love throughout the nations to make sure everyone has safety in order to live their lives in safe, peaceful, environments.
