Actjually, it is Judea and Samaria the Heartland of Israel, invaded and occupied by the “fakestinian” Arabs . Btw, why do they call the Jewish city of Shechem, Nablus, a Roman Latin name meaning Naples? 😂

[@StreetDrilla]

nikkiastein sumrayberg, your comment is a stupid embarrassment.

[@cinnaminson0653]

Not a single Ashkenazi is native to this area. They are all white Europeans.

[@musfikinsan3423]

​@@cinnaminson0653Most of arabs aren't natives too.Their surnames are Mısrî or Surî.İt means that They came from other arab regions like syria or egypt.Your arguement is senseless.

[@Bentsi2002]

Quick history lesson: 1948 the British withdrawal brought the surrounding Arab nations to attack the Jews, the Jews won the war and the Arabs can't face the defeat since. Arab land... Jews bought land from Arabs prior to 1948, tel Aviv was established on purchased land. Put aside that stupid argument and just live and let live.

@Amin Heydarian the Golan heights was conquered in a war that Israel didn't started, you are a joke.
