Endnote on eminent domain: “A University of Tel Aviv archaeologist named Ze’ev Herzon wrote in the newspaper Ha’aretz in 1999, “The Israelites were never in Egypt, did not wander in the desert, did not conquer the land in a military campaign, and did not pass it on o the twelve tribes of Israel. Furthermore, the united monarchy of David and Solomon, which is described by the Bible as a regional power, was at most a small tribal kingdom.” The Israelites were merely one indigenous culture among many. The idea that they had some sort of preeminent claim to the Holy Land has no basis in historical fact. Zionist archeology thus turns out to subvert Zionism.” https://www.thenation.com/article/archive/one-state-solution/tnamp/
