Jewish refugees from Arab-Muslim countries - The Arab countries had persecuted and expelled over a million Jewish families (who lived there for over 2,400 years) from their countries, confiscated their assets, businesses, homes and Real estate property 75,000 sq. mi.


The Qur'an 17:104 - states the land belongs to the Jewish people

Our Israel






Jewish refugees from Arab-Muslim countries - The Arab countries had persecuted and expelled over a million Jewish families (who lived there for over 2,400 years) from their countries, confiscated their assets, businesses, homes and Real estate property 75,000 sq. mi.. Over 670,00 Jewish families and their children of these expelled Jewish people and their children were resettled in Greater Israel. Today over half the population in Israel is the Jewish families expelled from Arab-Muslim countries.  The Land the Arab countries confiscated from the Jewish people 120,440 sq. km. or 75,000 sq. miles, which is over 6 times the size of Israel, and its value today is the trillions of dollars.
About 300,000 Jewish families expelled from Arab-Muslim countries resettled in Western countries. Due to natural population growth, the number of the Jewish people expelled from Arab-Muslim countries, number today over 8 million families.

זכר ימות עולם בינו שנות דור ודור... - דברים ל"ב:ז
Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations... (Deuteronomy 32:7)

 

The birthplace of the Jewish people is the Land of Israel (Eretz Yisrael). There, a significant part of the nation's long history was enacted, of which the first thousand years are recorded in the Bible; there, its cultural, religious, and national identity was formed; and there, its physical presence has been maintained through the centuries, even after the majority was forced into exile. During the many years of dispersion, the Jewish people never severed nor forgot its bond with the Land. With the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, Jewish independence, lost 2,000 years earlier, was renewed.
 
Archeology in Israel  involves the systematic investigation of all the remains of the country's past - from prehistory to the end of Ottoman rule. The profusion of material remains is evidence of the many cultures that have left their imprint on the Land.
 
Above all archeological research clearly reveals the historical link between the Jewish people, the Bible and the Land of Israel, uncovering the remains of the cultural heritage of the Jewish people in its homeland. These visible remains, buried in the soil, constitute the physical link between the past, the present and the future of the Jewish people in its country.
 
This unbroken chain of history can be observed at sites all over the country. Jerusalem, the capital of Israel, has been the focus of extensive archeological activity and remains of 5,000 years of history have been revealed.
