A country in the middle east which created more tention than its current age. Many people have

different thoughts about the legitemecy of this

country.

The truth is That ancient Israelites were first to come, at roughly 1000 B.C.

Then, they were replaced for the next 3000 years

by the Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Macedonians, Romans, Byzatines but only THEN came the muslims, 1500 late.

Because of the massive exiles jews experienced, modern day Israel had less jews. Therefore, mostly arab muslims settled there.

After 1500 another years of Muslim control of several empires, the Idea of restablishing Israel as a state came which infuriated the majorities from pre - israel citizens, the arabs.

This information is proven by WikiPedia and nowhere near biased.
