Is Judaism the only religion actually based on stealing a country?

Before it's brought up, I already know about Islam's overarching goal of one world divided into Muslims, slaves, and dhimmis, under an autocratic Caliph. I'm talking about one country in specific, though - not the whole planet.
"Stealing? It was theirs to begin with. Israel was the chosen land for the Jews, according to the Torah."
Uhuh. They wrote their tribal god as giving it to them. But that's still essentially just writing some stuff down to give some other tribes' land to themselves.

I'd be more inclined to worry about faiths that want to steal the entire planet by scavenging souls from older, tribal faith systems. Not only is that a GREAT way to corrupt your own faith, it certainly doesn't make the locals any better off, as a quick peek at vast swaths of the Middle East, Christian Africa and the US bible belt make more than clear.

I don't think that's what the basis of Judaism is. They believe God promised them that land, so it is unacceptable for them that someone else inhabit that land. Come on, why did the Christians rally up and march there to murder and loot in the first place?

Your knowledge of Judaism is lacking. And your knowledge of Islam is laughable. Is ignorance really bliss? I say it's pitiable.

News flash: Judaism existed long before 1948, when Israel gained independence. After WWII, a bunch of them decided that Europe was not quite the best place to live, so they reclaimed their ancestral homeland.

do you think Israel is the only country on the planet to have been formed by force of arms. You are a pathetic scholar then. Where do you think the fast majority of countires on the planet came from? With that logic the normans stole england from the saxons, the french and british stole america from the english--spain stole south america--grow up a little twit.
