Avram was the father of the Jewish People.&nbsp; This is the Jewish claim to

Israel.&nbsp; There is no Palestine, only the Land of Israel.&nbsp;&nbsp; All the anti
Jewish/Israel campaigns to cast doubts on the Jewish People's claim to
the Land of Israel is based on lies and hatred for the Jewish People.&nbsp;
