I think some ignorant saying Isreal of Bible not the same as Isreal of today .

When ignorant speaks, he talks like a drunkard, I think they should endeavour to read biblie and read about several cities, towns and villages of Israelites, in which the same names still resonate till today, Galilee, Jerusalem, Basheba, Capernaum, Jordan, Gaza, Philistines, Bethlehem etc, what about their currency shekels?

Atheist are free from delusion, believers are caged in delusion. Delusion of what, of a mysterious God told in story books. Indeed a man without critical reasoning says there is God.
A story book that has sold over a billion copies, determined to be destroyed by d greatest Kings that ever lived without success. I prefer to believe that story book than a few confused people who can't prove their beliefs and who both nature and archeological findings keep proving wrong

Interesting find. One has to wonder if ancestors of the African Jewish tribes that migrated to Africa once worshipped there.

You were the one that brought mosque into the conversation...
Jedaiam is the older religions with roots dating back to around 2000 BCE.
Islam, on the other hand was founded in the 7th century CE by the Prophet Muhammad.
Judaism is older than Islam by about 1,800 years.
So how do you expect to see mosques older or of similar age with synagogues in the area?
You don't have any genuine argument and again, you seems to be shooting yourself in the leg.

There have been so many proofs in the past, not just this one, that confirmed the Jews own the areas occupied by Palestine today. They are the original owners and Palestine are new settlers.

One thing with Islam is that it came to dominate the world and conquer what has been in existence. A case study is how Northern Nigeria fell
into the hands of Fulani occupiers and was captured by Usman Dan Fodio, the Jihadist. Till this moment Nigeria still suffers the ills of this land grabbers.

What made you think any other original occupiers of the area must have been Muslims...

And would have built a mosque?


Islam didn't spread until after the 7th century. I hope you understand what that means?


My problem with you people has always those of you making this Muslim/Christian affair.

It's so myopic as compared to the complex nature of what is going on in the region!
But your Arabs Palestinians now claim the land belong to them.... Palestinians that has no origin

This shows that Israel is actually Jewish Land, but land grabbers and respecter of Cultures want to claim what isn't theirs....
golan height is in Syria. But it doesnt mean the jews arent the original owners of israel. The Arabs and pro palestines argument is that the modern day israelis are europeans who migrated during the british mandate. But they also forget to argue that the new palestines are arabs who migrated from across the middle east.

Original inhabitants might not be jews but are certainly not Palestinians

What this shows is simple jews have a stronger claim to the land than Palestinians since they have longer history

Which people and erase which Jewish history?
This op is simply myopic.

Look at the statement made by Caliph Omar when he took over Jerusalem.

In the name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful. This is what is granted of security by the servant of Allah, Umar, the commander of the faithful, to the people of Jerusalem. He grants them safety for their lives, their property, their churches, and their crucifixes, for their ill, their healthy, and their entire community. Their churches will not be occupied, demolished, or reduced in number. Their churches and crucifixes will not be desecrated and neither anything else of their property. They will not be coerced to abandon their religion and none of them will be harmed.
- Caliph Omar

Na wa for Nairaland o. So much misinformation, delusions and manipulations.
sad
So how did he "take over" Jerusalem? Was he invited?
Re: 1,500-year-old Synagogue Uncovered In Golan Heights Nature Reserve ( Pics) by APOSTLECHUMA: 10:48am On Oct 07, 2025
WHEN TRUMP WHILE ANNOUNCING HIS PEACE PLAN SAID THAT HE WANTS TO SOLVE THIS CONFLICT BETWEEN ISRAELIS / PALESTINIANS, WHICH HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR 3000 YEARS AND ALJAZEERA WHILE REACTING TO THAT, REPORTED THAT ISRAEL WAS CREATED ONLY IN 1948, THAT TRUMP WAS WRONG, I LAUGHED IN FRENCH BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE DONT KNOW THE GENESIS OF THIS CRISIS AND THAT IT BEGAN WITH THE BIRTH OF ISHMAEL. IT WAS SARAH ABRAHAM'S WIFE THAT BROUGHT THIS UPON HUMANITY, DUE TO HER LACK OF FAITH, WHICH LED TO THE BIRTH OF ISHMAEL.

Did you know that only 20% of Jewish population in Israel are from Europe, the remaining 80% is from middle East and Ethiopia? So you see how delusional those Arab and pro Palestine are?

I'm not shooting myself in the foot...

I made a lengthy post about my position. It was deleted and I don't have strength to type all over again.

But the bottom line of my position is the the original occupiers of the land might not have been any of the two religions.

That a synagogue was located in the area doesn't pinpoint the original occupier of the place as Jews especially when Judaism is older than Islam with over 1000 years.

They might have been displaced and later embraced Islam as religion because it's relatively a newer religion.

Those shooting themselves in the foot is even Christians jumping into the argument because even the Bible supports that historically the original occupants of the land were displaced for isreal to be built!

You and all these your half thought arguments...

The discovery of this synagogue only establishes the presence of the Jewish settlement in the area which has never been in doubt.

It doesn't establish or pinpoint the Jews as the original occupiers of the land.

No dey reason one sidely from the myopic lens of whatever!
So are the Palestinians the original occupiers?

Exactly...

The people practicing Islam had a prior religion. Mecca, medina etc where originally idol worshipers before they embraced Islamic religion.

Religion should be separated from the argument of who occupied the land first is the part they are not getting!

If the Jews were there long before Muslims, why are they then dragging Jewish land with them?
The original post shows that Jews are rightful inhabitants of the land.
The post doesnt show that at all.

1500 years ago is 500 years after Jesus died. But the Jews and the Palestinians (& other tribes in the area) had been fighting since the Old Testament which is obviously hundreds (if not thousands) of years before Jesus was even born

Braaa, don't be antishematic angry angry angry. Don't you know the that's the temple where people whose names were Mileikowsky, Epstein, Goldberg, Rubenstein, Greenstein, Mabovitch etc used to worship. Finding an old synagogue definitely means that the land belongs to the Silversteins of Eastern Europe, don't you know true history?? angry

Now, go and sin no more!

And why did the Caliph Omar take Jerusalem?

It is a prophesy.
It was duly fulfilled in him. And the christians facilitated it.
That is why the key to the most sacred church (Church of the holy Sepulchre) in christianity remains with muslims till date.

And that is why the Jews of today (the zionists) not only fight muslims but also detest the christians with all passion. Though it is only the muslims who are standing up prominently to this oppression from the Jews.

So what then is the joy of a Christian Nairalander for, for God's sake?

You forgot to put the 'IF'. They are only allowed if they agree to live as 'Dimmi' and they pay 'Jizya' too. You forgot to read that part though. I was only giving you they full script.
