I'll add one thing: Even according to Old Testament scholarship, Hebrew sovereignty in present-day Palestine would have been only from 1200 BC until about 600 BC, that is about 600 years. The Babylonian captivity ended in roughly 560 BC when Kourosh (Cyrus) the Great added present-day Iraq to his Persian empire. The Jews prospered under Persian rule, according to the Old Testament. Present-day Palestine remained a Persian province until Alexander the Great took it; you all get the drift. The point is this: Palestine has been part of the "House of Islam" for a longer time than it was ever "Jewish." Nothing other than sheer racism could give European Jews a greater right to the territory than the Muslim and Christian Arab inhabitants.
