Oh now I get it. In 1948 the Jews became the Israelites when Israel first became a country. Ya gotta love Ima. What a great sense of humor. Heh Heh.
You just like to make shit up because you can't answer my questions. Or then go ahead, here they are again:
"Please tell me why ancient history matters, why it matters to what's going on today, why the ancient history of Jews matters more than the ancient history of others, and why, if ancient history matters and there never was a country named Israel
in ancient history, should we not look to ancient history and not allow such a country to exist?"
Btw, there were Israelites before there was an Israel. No big deal. There are tons of christians without a country called Chrisrael either. So what?
