Just a reminder... While the jews are obviously wrong for taking land from the palestines in modern time the argument has always been "well its our ancestral land"... well even that is more or less a lie.

Below is the original borders of Israel in Blue (some might consider Judah part of it since they were jewish, but it was a separate country).

Regardless of if you consider the yellow and blue together as one it is obvious that most of ancient israel was contained in the borders of the modern bank.. and at least half of modern day israel was never part of the ancient lands of israel according to its first borders (obvious we dont count places it invaded as that isnt their ancestral land).

No matter how you slice it is in the wrong here and is an occupied country.

@freemo I always was sure that Israel didn't take these lands itself but there was an agreement of UN to give them these lads, was I wrong as usual?

@AncientGood well yes and no.. the UN, without the authority to do so, claimed the jews were allowed to take the land. Since people were living there already what the UN essentially said was "WE sanction the jews invading modern day palestine and taking it for their own"... So no the jews still invaded, it just happened to be an invasion the UN agreed to. which makes it no less wrong.
