Historical Context
There was no country in this world especially for Jews. After world war II and the mass execution of Jews under Hitler regime created space for the demand for Jews Homeland. During the time of Prophet Mohammad, there were evidence of Jews peoples living in that area peacefully with Muslims. Hence both Jews and Arab Muslim have claim on this land back a couple thousand years.
After world war II, demand for Jewish homeland in this area created discontent among Arab Muslims. An early United Nations plan to give each group part of the land failed, and Israel and the surrounding Arab nations fought several wars over the territory.
