The concept of the Promised Land originates from a religious narrative written in Hebrew religious text in the Torah.
God is claimed to have spoken the following promises to Abraham in several verses of Genesis the first book of the Torah.
The Lord has said to Abram, “Leave your country, your people, and your father’s household, and go to the land I will show you.†Genesis 12:1
Later in what is called the covenant of the pieces, a verse is said to describe what is known as the “borders of the landâ€
I will establish your borders from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean Sea, and from the desert to the Euphrates River.
I will give into your hands the people who live in the land, and you will drive them out before you. Do not make a covenant with them or their gods. Do not let them live in your land, or they will cause you to sin against me because the worship of their gods will certainly be a snare to you. Exodus 23:31-33
The Palestinians have lived on the same lands before Israel became a State in the 1940s and have legal rights to their lands by International Laws. They live under Isreal rule as a people in a grand apartheid state.
Genocide is the deliberate killing of a large ethnic group of people from a particular nation to destroy them; using starvation, lack of drinking water, sanitary conditions, medical supplies, and shelter when their homes were bombed and bulldozed. The International community has recognized that Israel has committed Genocide against the Palestinian people. The International Criminal Court in the Hague, Netherlands has accused Benjamin Netanyahu of crimes of genocide, war crimes, and crimes against the humanity of the Palestinian people.
