Regarding what he labelled as “Zionist colonisation”, Qaradawi pointed out that relations between Muslims and Jews had been good till the appearance of Zionism. Jews had lived among Muslims for centuries and been treated better than anywhere else. But they turned against Arabs and Muslims with the advent of Zionism and wanted to colonise Palestine as settlers.
“The Jews mistakenly claim that Allah has given them Palestine as their homeland, which is untrue. Allah has never ordained that people should be deported from their homes to be replaced by strangers,” Qaradawi said.

Thank you for this. The Judeans (Jews) were not behind this invasion of Palestine... they were just a convenient excuse. My imaginary 'friend' and I have been going over this whole dispute from the beginning.
First, an 'ancestral' claim does not support an act of war, nor did the Judeans even require it since the lands were made available to them... and any one else who wished to live there.
Secondly, the 'ancestral' claim, were it to be invoked, would be limited to the land that was Judea - a very small bit of land to the south of the land that was Israel. When Ezra (Uzayr) returned with his people from the Babylonian exile, they limited their residencies to Judea only - because they understood this. One has to remember that when the wars began, it was the sons of Benjamin and Judah that were at war with the tribes of Israel, so I don't see how any Judean (Jew) could even think about claiming any of the land that was Israel.
Thirdly, by their own admission, the 'lost' tribes of Israel were absorbed into the Assyrian culture, which... if I'm not mistaking... is Muslim now? They (Muslims) have the right to claim that land... I just have to find them all.
Who ever is behind all this current BS, is obviously ignorant to Judean records because from just the above, which represents only a tenth of what I actually know, there are no legal or religious grounds to support what has happened in Palestine.
They can put up all the walls they want, but it won't solve the problem. If memory serves, those walls came down twice before.
