According to the bible fables the Jews themselves invaded and colonized the region carrying out genocide and theft. Even Jerusalem was not a Jewish city, it was called Jebus a city of the Jebusites, a Canaanite tribe who inhabited and built Jerusalem prior to its conquest by King David.

Maybe, but you don’t believe in the historical Bible.

3000 years later there are no Canaanites nor Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites or even Jebusites. They are not making a claim, and you are not speaking for them. They are not the Arabs. They are not the Arab Palestinians.

Instead, you ignore the very recent evidence of the ethnic cleansing done by Jordan. It was only in 1948. They openly killed and expelled the Jews from Jerusalem, Judea, and Samaria. The world, while not accepting their claim of the land, turned a blind eye. In 1950 Jordan openly tried to erase the history of Jews in Judea by renaming the land “The West Bank”. Again, the world not only turned a blind eye, but has repeated the lies.
Now the World (as represented by the United Nations) wants to reward those illegal acts.

3000 years later there are Jews, there are Judeans, and there are Israelite.

It is not the bible that says that, but actual science. History as reported by the multiple nations that conquered the land.
While countries came and went, Greek, Roman and Egyptian. Jews maintained their culture, language, and religion.

It is not the Bible that is the basis for the historic connection to the land. A historical connection to the land that in 1880, no other living group had.
