Since the 7th Century INVASION.
And as you say, there has ALWAYS been a Jewish presence on THEIR ancient Jewish homeland.
With a Caliph opening Jerusalem to them, knowing the importance it had to Judaism.
That Caliph understood Judaism and had a kind heart and mind towards the Jews.
Most Muslim leaders today do not and teach Mohammad's , the butcher, way of dealing with Jews. To kill them.
Here are some leaders today, with blood in their hands:
Arabs are not indigenous to the area and are NOT being asked to leave. Anymore than Europeans are being asked to leave Australia, the Americas, etc.
Islam needs to find a real path to live in peace with other religions and not insist that it is superior to all others, and that they must destroy all which is not Muslim, or all people who are not Muslim.
When are the leaders going to behave like the first Caliph who invaded the Jewish Homeland?
Right, the Jews were not sovereign, but still......now they are......and Islam must learn how to respect Jews and teach all of Islam to treat them with respect.
In my dreams that will happen.
The Akkadians were from Arabia. They were in Palestine.
Arabs have always had Jews living around them.
31:16
ESV
16 And the Lord said to Moses, “Behold, you are about to lie down with your fathers. Then this people will rise and whore after the foreign gods among them in the land that they are entering, and they will forsake me and break my covenant that I have made with them.
Lots of Jews moved to Hebron when they were expelled from Spain and Portugal. There was no problem. The problem comes with Zionism forcing people off their land and killing them if they resist.
Be honest.
