You have to understand though that Jerusalem was occupied by Arabs until the 1940’s, when they were basically kicked out and replaced by Jews. Anyone would be offended if a foreign country took their land and gave it to someone else.

God swore to Abraham, Isaac and Jacab to give the land of Israel to their descendents, also promising to TEMPORARILY exile them for faithlessness.
The land belongs to the children of Israel, although “resident aliens” should not be oppressed.
The land does NOT belong to the Arabs. As Jesus said that “our faith comes from the Jews”, we should respect their inheritance.

That is a good way to make an excuse for forcefully removing people from their homes and giving the land to someone else.

How did the Muslims get the land in the first place before the Jews took it in the 40’s? Did they just ask for it and everyone said it’s fine?

I’m having troubles understanding though… Basically Muslims are upset because the re-taking of Jerusalem by the Jews was recent?

That is typical liberal progressive speak. No one owns the land in the end and we can steal anyone’s land if we wish. The Muslims lived there for a thousand years, and they didn’t take the land from the Jews. Maybe we should boot the Turks from turkey, and give the land to the Greeks. Constantinople was originally Greek. We should boot all the dark skinned people from Southern Europe too, because the Mors invaded Southern Europe and so their descendent a should be removed in favor of the real owners of the land. Obviously all of us in the west are invaders, and we don’t really own this land. So everyone in north and South America must return to Europe and Asia and Africa, because this land is now gonna be returned to the Cherokees, Aztecs, Mayans, incans, and other Indian tribes. Who else can we displace?

Keeping this in mind you believe that the Muslims should take back the land from the Jews?

No, I never said that; but let’s not pretend that the Jews were the rightful owners of the land. The Muslims have a reason for their animosity. I am not gonna pretend that the foundation of the Israeli state in the forties was a good thing, or that it was God’s will.

But the Jews allow the Muslims to live their peacefully, and yet they have been getting rocks thrown at them when they approach the dome of the rock.

Most of the negative stuff I’ve learned about Islam in practice, I’ve learned from talking to Arab Christians.

Imagine if I take your house and let you live in one room “peacefully”! How will you react?
Palistinians were driven out of their houses, and forced to be refugees all over the world. Most of them still keep their houses keys in a hope of retrun, and God is just.
Quran 24:55 Allah has promised those who have believed among you and done righteous deeds that He will surely grant them succession [to authority] upon the earth just as He granted it to those before them and that He will surely establish for them [therein] their religion which He has preferred for them and that He will surely substitute for them, after their fear, security, [for] they worship Me, not associating anything with Me. But whoever disbelieves after that - then those are the defiantly disobedient. 56 And establish prayer and give zakah and obey the Messenger - that you may receive mercy.57 Never think that the disbelievers are causing failure [to Allah ] upon the earth. Their refuge will be the Fire - and how wretched the destination.
