Jews don't get a pass "just because"

Jews were the original inhabitants of the area long before the arabs came along

No they were not, anymore Europeans were the first to "discover" America.

Trace back our species evolution far enough and there are always humans pior. "I was here first" is bullshit for any political or religious label to claim. We never ceased to be part of the same evolution and our species is much deeper rooted in DNA than our invented social clubs.

The Canaanites were around that same region prior along with all the polytheism of other cultures. And there were prior humans to the written tradition as well. Our DNA tracking is showing that ultimately our species originated in Africa.

Who gives a hell's ass about the Canaanites? Are they still around? I believe not. But Jews still are. And they have historical claims on these lands. And today, they have the guns to back these claims up.
A century ago, the Greeks of today's Greece, came with an army into our lands to re-claim their historical lands in Anatolia and Thrace.
They were beaten back, but do you really think they've given up? No, as long as the sun shines, and the moon rises above the sky, the Greeks will still look for an opportunity to kick us out, and declare their lordship over these lands. And as long as we exist, we will fight them for it.
It's the natural law of the world to re-claim lands that you once held legitimate claims on.

The fact that we have the same DNA, and are of the same species doesn't change the fact that we are of different tribes. Even in nature, there are tribes of the same species who fight eachother for territory. We are different from them that we also have distinctive languages and cultures to further supplement our blood relations.
Indeed, a tribe needs a place to live and thrive on.
