You can focus on the happy things that Jesus said if you want, but he either serves or is the same guy that told his recently freed chosen people that they can have land that's already occupied by other people. Setting aside land for them apparently didn't include keeping other tribes from using it beforehand.

What makes you believe God controlled history to the point of not allowing people to inhabit land they came to. Could it be that God saw it was good that these people prepared the land for His chosen people, after all these people never did anything to help the Israelites.

I would assume a god of peace would give them land that wasn't currently owned, so his followers didn't have to slaughter and die for land that their deity supposedly prepared for them in advance.
