My understanding is that previous Jewish state was defeated and conquered by Roman Republic in 63 BC. Its successor Roman Empire made its best to destroy anything left of Judea in 1st and 2nd centuries anno domini.
Depending how you want to count there wasn't Jewish state in around 1800-2000 years (rounded numbers), next being modern Israel from 1948. After the Roman time it have been just part of various empires or countries.
Please correct me if I'm wrong somewhere (I'm not perfect) and tell me how Jewish people have more valid claim to Palestine (one name among others) than people now referred to as Palestinians?
