Somebody mention "Crusade"?
Long before there was ever a Palestine, God gave all of the land as far as the eye could see, to the Tigris Euphrates River, to Abram and further told him that his lineage would go through Isaac (Jewish lineage). Ishmael would have his own contentious following which is certainly contentious to this day. The land belongs to Israel and furthermore, all of the land through the Arabian peninsula belongs to the Jews. Final Crusade, anyone?
