Yes, totaly. It was predicted in the bible and given to them by Jehovah, ad they claim the right by this alone.

Your original statement was "Even today the nation of Israel exists out of religious claim."
This is false.
As I said, the nation state of Israel exists because of the British Mandate of Palestine.

Stop and think- If there was NO British mandate, JUST the devout belief of the Jewish people, would Israel exist? NO!

The Palestinians would not simply say, "Oh, I'm sorry- I did not know you had a religious claim! I guess I'll pack my bags and go now!"

Nope.

No not just.

There is plenty of evidence to suggest that they've been there for many thousands of years.

I feel it is a political claim and why didn't the
powers that be establish neutral territory for the
Jewish people. They put traumitized people into
another traumatic situation.
