Did Israel conquer Palestine or did Palestine conquer Israel?
It is a difficult question to answer. If we review ancient history, Israel was there 5 thousand years go till about year 0. In early 20th century Israeli was mainly populated by tribes of Arab nations and Israeli settlers, and in 1948 the UN declared a two countries solution in Israel for the Jewish and the Palestinians. Therefore, Israel declared independence - followed up by war declaration from most of the Arab nations around Israel and the Arab tribes living in Israel - later be called Palestinians (by the name of the place - Palestine), Israel won the war while conquering a few areas in Israel. Another reference can be made to the name "Philistines" - which is an ancient word from the bible describing invader tribes from around Israel. Philistines in biblical Hebrew means invaders. Often times, the Palestinians are identified with the Philistines since the Roman Name "Palestine" was derived from the word "Philistine".
What are the similarities between Ancient Israel and modern Israel?
Gographically Israel in ancient times, at the height of its power, stretched well into what is now Jordan, had the whole Sinai peninsular, and much of the Lebanon. Geographically then, Israel is MUCH smaller, around a quarter of the size. Religiously Israel used to be governed under the rules layed down in the bible, and had such ancient laws as one might expect from a book written 3000 years ago (eg. polygamy, sexual inequality etc.) Now Israel is governed by laws influenced by Jewish morales, yet with a strictly modern and progressive attitude. Bear in mind the constitution is only 60 years old, and is a very modern country. Constitutionally Israel 2000 years ago was ruled by kings, with a Rabbinate council as his "advisory body" , and 'Judges' to enforce the law, who doubled up as prophets. Nowadays it is a modern democracy with a legal system based on that of the USA with elements of UK law
