No, before Jacob there was a land called Canaan. Jacob was a tribe of people and not from "Israel" nor "Samaria" nor "Judea". Read your bible in context.
Abram the Hebrew (cross over) never named Isaac nor Jacob the Israelites.
But, you believe what you want to believe. You're probably right. You must be of the 'chosen ones'
Here's a fun fact which might sound ridiculous to some but still holds water.
Bruce Lee once said "If you get all the disciples in a room, they'd dissagree but if you brought the prophets to a meeting they'd unanimously agree on the TRUTH"
There's no archeology regarding Gwyneth Paltrow, Roman Polanski or Benzion Mileikowsky (Ben Netanyahu)?
Facts aren't anti semitic.
And yes, you and Nam are right......history only matters when you're right. Holodomor was a fact as well. Personally I don't see the fascination for "Israel"???
Maybe your Governance in the area, ie territory??? Maybe it's your faith??? Maybe it's the spaghetti monster in the sky? Maybe it's the ADL?????
RE: "ALL BETS ARE OFF"
@DragoJust out of curiosity.
Are you "chosen"??
Straight forward question deserves a straight forward answer.
God bless you
