David was a conquistador and the Palestinian Arabs were in the way. Simple fact. The line that it was God’s wish for the Jews to return to the desert is an interesting one. Since you always ask for links or references, can you provide a link to that instruction/direction from God to Herzl?
Yitzhak Rabin, Prime Minister of Israel 1974-1977, 1992—1995 “We walked outside, Ben-Gurion accompanying us. Allon repeated his question, What is to be done with the Palestinian population?’ Ben-Gurion waved his hand in a gesture which said ‘Drive them out!”—Yitzhak Rabin, leaked censored version of Rabin memoirs, published in the New York Times, 23 October 1979.
