In contemporary rabbanic and Jewish theological discussuins, those ancient texts [Genesis 12:3; Joel 3:2 ; Zechariah 2:8; Proverbs 14:34; Ezekiel 25:28] are often applied to modern political actions:
*The slogan "From the River to the Sea": Many Jewish organizations and religious figures consider the slogan "From the river to the sea Palestine will be free" to be antisemitic and a call for the destruction of the State of Israel. From This perspective, nations that permit the use of this slogan in certain contexts, or fail to condem it, could be seen through the lens of thoose who "curse" or orppress" Israel, potentially incurring divine disfavor or judgement according to specific interpretations of the prophetic texts.
*Recognizing a Palestine State:The division of the land is a sentative issue rooted in the biblical concept that the land belongs to G-d and was given to the Jewish people as an inheritance. Actions by nations to unilaterally recognize a Palestine state in the entirety of the territory from the river to the sea, or without a negotiated settlemnt that ensures Israel's existance and security, can be interpreted by some religious viewpoints as "dividing up My land." This would fall under the category of actions for which G-d will "enter into judgement" with the nations.
Recently, on "France 24 English" one of their presenters stated that Israel had been created 'in Palestine'.
That is factually wrong.
“Palestine” is the Roman-imposed rename of Israel / Judah, used by the Romans for attempting to negate Israel as the name for the land, and today used likewise by the “Palestinian” Arabs and their primarily anti-Semitic supporters.
The name “Palestine” applied only to foreign rule of the land of Israel, first by the Romans who imposed that name to negate Israel / Judah as names for the land, and later for the Mandate awarded to Great Britain between 1922 and 1948. The Romans had resurrected the name “Palestine” (Philistine) from the region much smaller than Israel, in which (by Roman times the defunct) Philistines had been. Both of those usages of the name were rule by a foreign imperial power. There has never been any indigenous “Palestine” / Arab sovereign state in the land of Israel. Neither is the name “Palestine” any valid geographical name; a correct geographical name for the region is “Levant”.
There's no "P" in Arabic, so in Arabic the name "Palestine" is "Philistine"; the name simply means "Philistine" which refers to that ancient people with which today's "Palestinian" Arabs have zero connection.
Likewise the slogan "Free Palestine From the River to the Sea" (“free Palestine from the river [Jordan] to the sea [Mediterranean]” ) (the description indicating All the land), is the desire to replace ALL of Israel with another Arab state, and to expel or murder Israel's (indigenous) Jews:
All the reader has to do is to imagine the October 7th, 2023 massacre on that larger scale!
When countries wrongly accuse Israel of genocide in Gaza, yet while at the same time inconsistant with any such intention by Israel, also complain about the continous displacement of Gaza civilians (intended to keep them out of harm's way), this amounts to a “Psychological Projection” by those countries: Institutionalised anti-Semitism where such countries desire the genocide of the Jewish people, by way of supporting Israel's enemies.
