No people, other than the Jewish people, has ever ruled as a sovereign national entity on the the Land of Israel. A mighty Jewish kingdom extended over this land before the Arabs and their Islam were even born. The Jewish people have had a presence in the Land of Israel for over 3300 years, since the time of Moshe and Yehoshua.
The national coins, the pottery and the ancient Hebrew texts - All support this fact.
The Jewish people have enjoyed several periods of sovereignty in this land:
With the united monarchy of Israel govern by kings Shaul, David and Shlomo (1030-930 BC).
With the seperate kingdoms of Yehuda (930-586 BC) and Israel (930-721 BC).
With the state of Yehuda govern by the Hasmonean dynasty (140-60 BC).
With the Roman client kingdom of Yehuda under the Herodians (39-4 BC).
With the Israeli state govern by Shimon bar Kokhba during the second revolt against Rome (132-135 CE).
With the State of Israel and the Zionist movement since the first aliyah.
