Not all of them.
Many ultra-Orthodox Jews believe that the Jewish people only have the right to enter the land formerly known as Palestine when the Messiah comes. They believe that the state of Israel is therefore kind of blasphemous.
This has not stopped a small but very vocal number of them from emigrating to Israel and living off state benefits while they loudly protest the very existence of the country they are living in. Which, to my mind as a believer in democracy, is cheating.

Palastine already officially doesn't exist. That's why everyone's so mad over there. That land was transformed into the modern state of Israel.
Not all Jews between that land is the Promised Land. It was the original promised land, but some argue that after they were driven out, the land God promised is not the same land he previously promised. Some American Jews hold that America is the promised land, because it's been such a haven. Jews have always been full citizens here, which has not been the case in most places in the world.

Palestine doesn't exist, now. Actually, Palestine, as a state, never existed. There was the British Mandate of Palestine, before that, it was part of a series of Islamic empires, the last of which was the Turkish Ottoman Empire. Before /that/ it was part of the Byzantine Empire (Christian), and before that the Roman Empire (first Pagan, later Christian). There was a brief period between conquests by Persians and Romans when it was Judea. From there it's just myth and pre-history.
A State of Palestine /almost/ existed in 1947 when the UN proposed spliting the Mandate of Palestine into Palesting & Israel. The Arab states rejected the idea. 60 years of bloodshed followed.

The land was given to Abraham and that promise was affirmed to Isaac then Jacob by God. The Arabs are descendants of Ishmael, who received a different promise from God.
God bless Israel.

It means they will take all the Islamic land between the Euphrates and the Nile including parts of Egypt and Iraq.
Muslims are opposed to ISRAEL because they know the Jews will not rest until the land is taken by force to create "Greater Israel".
Jews believe they have a divine right to kill anyone who comes in their way.
They seem to forget that the Arabs are the purest blood of Abraham since most Jews are now mixed with the Khazars who are more closely related to Atilla the Hun than to Jacob and Abraham.

God gave to Abraham all of the land of Israel to Him and his "seed". It was given to Issac, Abraham's wife's son and NOT given to Ishmael, Abraham's bond servant. This is where you have two children both with the same Daddy but only one of his sons receives the heritage and the promised Land. Palestine is born of the Bond servant, and has no rights over the Land that was given to Abraham and his seed...

They err. No where upon the planet earth is worth fighting over, and no possesion is worth killing for.
Removing a soul from its body is only justified when that body/mind is spreading tyrany (like Hitlers) over the innocent.
