So just where should the Israelis live, smc? They are on their ancestral land. The house of Israel and descendants have lived in the area of Israel for millennia. Even when the people of the twelve tribes of Israel were dispersed throughout the world there were still Israelis living in the area we now call Israel. The Arabs and the Israelis trace a common ancestry back to Abraham who, it is supposed, lived in the area of Israel.
As for the second part of your first statement I would like to know what you base this on. The current theory of evolution states that everyone alive today can trace their ancestry back to one female in southern Africa. Humans migrated out of Africa to colonize the rest of the world so it would be logical to say that no part of the world belongs to one race more than any other race.
Throughout the history of the world there has been one race or tribe moving into another?s area. The Turks, who come from the Asian steppes displaced the Greeks who had earlier displaced the Hittites. In the other direction the Greeks colonized Egypt to point of taking over the ruling class. The Greeks also colonized Sicily and southern Italy and deprived the Etruscans, who were there first, of their land.
The Hungarians are native to the steppes of Asia. The Visigoths who were originally from the area of the Black Sea settled in Spain. The Romans colonized most of Europe, parts of the Middle East, and northern Africa. The Celts drove out the original inhabitants of western Europe and went on to settle in Austria, Switzerland, northern Italy, France, Germany, and the UK. The Celts were in turn conquered by the Romans, the Franks, and the Germanic tribes all of which came out of the vast grasslands of western Asia.
The Scandinavians drove the Suomi north from their native land. They then turned their attention to the south occupying the lands of the Germanic tribes of western Europe.
The Persians tried to expand their empire west without much lasting success. They did however move east into Afghanistan and India.
The tribes of the Americas continually encroached on each other?s land.
So where is the cut-off point where it can be said that no one race or tribe allowed to settle anywhere other than where they are?
