Well, do you think that the current Jewish majority of white skinned Ashkenazim, eastern Jews, have any more claim to the land? Their link to the ancient Israelites of the bible is more than questionable.

Israel has already forced the Arabs into a much much smaller area than what the UN set as boundaries and is currently building a huge wall around them! The best the Palestinians can do is to throw stones and to fire primitive unguided rockets while the Israelis have one of the best equipped armies in the world paid for by the US tax payer!
