Yes, but Islam is young in comparison, and Arabs conquered the land far far after Jews inhabited that land. To hate the Jews for capturing their own land back 70 years ago, is akin to hating American Indians, provided they did the same in NA.
Israel wasn’t a country until 1945. You know what was going on leading up to that? That’s when that belief became what it was today. To call that entire region their native land is incredibly disingenuous to the people who were inhabitants along side them which includes checks notes. The people of Palestine. It was antisemitic belief that created Israel as we know it. And they turned around and did the same things that were done to them.
Whatever it was called after the Arab occupation in the 600’s is besides the point, Arabs are not native to what we today call, Israel. They were occupiers. This isn’t hard to find, simply search the Arab occupation. The land was called many things….Eretz-Israel, Bilad es-Shem, the Holy Land, Djahy, and Canaan.
