Why do you people call Israel terrorists? Imagine if Native Americans were attacked and mostly destroyed. They regroup hundreds of years later, but you americans attack and bomb them because "you were here first". That's how Israel feels. But of you don't agree with me, that's fine.

Well, terrorism is a tactic and not about whether you are "right" or "wrong". What makes this an especially a messy situation is that both sides have claims to being the Native Americans in your scenario.

Hold on a minute.  God told them to slaughter the original inhabitants.  Totally not their fault.

I'm sure Israel would give up most of their land willingly if the Canaanites came back--I mean, if they'd left any alive, that is.

They weren't the original inahabitants any more than the Israelites were.  They coexisted in the same land but the Canaanites, descendents of Canaan, were cursed by Noah.  The original Israelites eventually left for Egypt because Joseph, son of Jacob AKA Israel, became wealthy and powerful there and eventually a new Pharoah came into power and enslaved them..  Then exodus > 40 years in the wilderness > the destruction of Jericho
