    Why does anyone think Israel was there first??? Lmfao. Their own Torah says otherwise.

    “God gave this to us” isn’t a legitimate argument.

      i think most people don’t know the history and just figure it’s a normal country we’re allied with for the normal sort of reasons

      As it happens, they and the Canaanites were both Semitic peoples. In this particular point it’s probably inaccurate to consider Canaanites and Hebrews as separate people at all. The Exodus from Egypt is both largely mythological and, one might note, was probably freed slaves returning home instead of seeking new lands.

      The Semitic groups (which includes Arabs) are basically everyone not Persian or Turk in southwest Asia.

      Because Arabs came there only in 600year a.c. While Israely were there from 10 000 b.c. Along with other tribes, but not Arabs. But then Arabs made up Muslim and started claiming everything and being cry babis if not allowed.

          I don’t believe a book where all people started from Adam and Eva having two sons, one of them died and second one giving birth to more man etc, without women. Where they fucking goats? Also this book is stupidly bloody, unjust and outright dumb.
