The references in the Qur’an to God’s grant of the land to the Jews tend to be tied to stories of Jewish disobedience and punishment. Consider Surah 5, verses 18-32.

But the key passage is 17:104. One translation–

And we said to the Children of Israel afterwards, “Go live in this land. When the final prophecy comes to pass, we will summon you all in one group.”

This verse, unfortunately, is tied in Orthodox Islam to the infamous Hadith proclaiming that at the end of days the Muslims and the Land itself (except, of course, for the gharqad tree) will fight against the Jews. In other words, the ingathering of the exiles is to be the prelude for annihilation.

Those Muslims who deny the Jewish connection with Eretz Israel may be apostates for contradicting the Quran. I think there is a sura in the Quran that describes the country as the country of the Jews, given to them by Allah. Don’t remember the number.

The biggest lie of all is that THEY are “the Palestinians,” which connotes that Jews in Eretz Israel are NOT Palestinians. Go back to General Assembly Resolution 181 and look at the usage of the adjective “Palestinian.” In all instances but one the term refers to citizenship status and applies to Jews and Arabs alike. The final appearance of the term is in the phrase “the two Palestinian peoples.”

The PLO still rejects the concept of two Palestinian peoples, insisting that Palestine is Arab land. That is the Big Lie.

But it seems that Abbas is in denial about his Holocaust denial.
