LIES ABOUT THE HISTORY OF ISRAEL

1. "Abraham offered Ishmael, not Isaac, on Mt. Moriah!" Genesis 22:1-2, 9, 12; Hebrews 11:17; James 2:21
2. "The Jews never owned the Temple Mount - it is an Islamic holy site!"   II Samuel 24:18-25
3. "There never was a king named David!" Psalm 78:70-72; 89:34-37 (mentioned 1085 times in the Bible)
4. "The Jews never built a temple on the Temple Mount and there never was a king named Solomon!"   I Kings 6:1; II Chronicles 3:1-2
5. "The city of Jerusalem never belonged to the Jews - it was and is a holy site for Muslims."   (Jerusalem is mentioned 811 times in the Bible; not once in the Quran!) I Kings 11:36; II Chron. 6:6
6. "The land was and is called "Palestine" until the modern State of Israel occupied it."   Matthew 2:20-21 - The name "Palestine" was not officially given to the land until the 2nd century AD when Hadrian named it after the Jewish Revolt under Bar Kochba to offend the Jews by naming it after their ancient enemies - the Philistines.
7. "The modern State of Israel was started by Jews who took land away from the Palestinians!"   The Jews were given a homeland by international agreement but never took any land away from anyone!  When the holocaust Jewish survivors came to Israel, Egypt told some 300,000 Arabs to leave their homes in Palestine for a few days while the armies of seven Arab nations would wipe out the Jews. When they lost the war of liberation in 1948, the Jews invited all of these "refugees" to return. Some did; others did not. The Jews paid huge prices for land from a few Arab landowners - mostly swamps, desert land that was filled with rocks.  There never were a Palestinian people, culture, nation, or language. There never was an Arab state on that land. The late Syrian leader, Hafez Assad, said: "There is no such thing as a Palestinian people; there is no Palestinian entity - there is only Syria!"
8. "Tel Aviv is the capital of Israel, not Jerusalem!"  Jerusalem is the only capital Israel has ever had, both from ancient times to the present day!
