To those that claimed earlier that religion has nothing to do with this:

Israel's claim to the "holy land" is rooted in religious history. They believe the land was given to them by their god.

Let me ask this: If I were to barge into your living room and claim "my god says this is my land, I'm entitled to it and I'm staying here and I don't care if you don't like it because I place the word of my god before yours" wouldn't you be the least bit resentful? Want to kick me out? By force/violence if necessary? How about after a few days? Months? Years?

You see the point?

It's classic manipulation of religion to justify oppression and rationalize behavior/action that would otherwise be considered immoral or inappropriate.
