During the reign of Prophet David and Solomon, which were considered as the golden ages of ancient Israel and their possessions spread from each side, Palestinians Beach from Jaffa to the south of Gaza was still in control of the Palestinians, and therefore, the Jews at the height of their conquest could not own all of Palestine as they claimed.
After the death of Solomon, the northern tribes of Israel formed a forum in Shechem and asked Rehoboam (914-932 BC), son and successor of Solomon, to give a discount on their taxes, and Rehoboam refused the request, and the ten northern tribes isolated from Judah and formed kingdom of Israel and chose Jeroboam, who had returned from Egypt, to reign. Rehoboam fled to Jerusalem and the two tribes of Judah and Benjamin also migrated to the south with him; with the incident two separate thrones were formed; state of Israel was in the north including beyond the Jordan (in the east) and the coastal area between Carmel and Jaffa (in Morocco) and its capital was Syshem, and state of Judah was in the south between the Dead Sea and the Mediterranean coastal territory and its capital was Jerusalem. This event caused political and religious differences between the two new countries; Jeroboam introduced the old religion of Canaan in Israel and represented two golden calves at Dan and Bethel to the people to worship, but Jews still remained loyal to Rehoboam, king of the South.
Many wars broke out between the two countries, especially on religious issues. North Country of Israel lasted about two centuries (722-923BC). It was finally in control of the Assyrians and they moved is privileged elite people of the country to Iraq.
Judah was in the southern part of the Palestine and was poorer than its northern counterpart. After the devastation of the North Country, the country lasted for 135 years. Judah was also under the control of Nebuchadnezzar the Chaldean. In the year 586 BC, he conquered Jerusalem and after the burning of the temple of Solomon and the palace of the king, he captured more than fifty thousand people and moved them to Babylon as the displaced.
Thus, the period that the Jews ruled since the time of Saul to the extinction of the state of Israel in 722 BC was 322 years and extinction of branch of Judah in 587 BC, was 457 years.

The collapse shows the absolute end of organized Jewish rule in Palestine the. In this expression the issue is defined well:
Twelve Tribes of Israel were exiled to the Caucasus, Armenia and especially Babylon and were finally destroyed, and thereby the Jewish people disappeared forever along with their race, national and religious community.
However, in 520 BC, Cyrus, the king of Persia, defeated Babylon and freed the Jews to return to Palestine, but they were again dominated by Macedonians and Romans and could never reach the government again. During the rule of the Macedonians and Romans, the Jewish people began several revolts, but despite all these riots - especially Maccabees revolt that was well-known - Jewish state was not restored again.
This state of being scattered and the loss is acknowledged by many Israeli historians. As the Chief Rabbi of Great Britain wrote in 1917:
After a decree that Cyrus issued, most of the Jewish people still remained in Babylon.
The point is also approved by Amsted, the American historian and author of Achaemenes history. He writes:
It was difficult to expect that the Jews, who were already rich, to leave fertile lands of Babylon to have barren hills of Judea.
Or he writes:
Masses of Jews that were scattered in Greek and Roman empires had further attention to the Jewish state in Palestine.
By the uprising of Barkukhba in 134 AD that led to several conquests at the beginning and exited the Romans from Palestine who became monarch of Israel and Judah for two years from 132 to 134, but he was finally defeated by Roman forces and the relationship of Jews with Palestine was ruined till the nineteenth century apart and they were scattered more than past in different parts of Europe, Asia and Africa. George Wells, English historian, gives this summary of the history of the Jews (Hebrews)in the book "summarizing the history":
Jewish life in Palestine is like the situation of a man who insists on settling in a high-traffic path, thus trucks and buses constantly pass over him... the Jewish nation as nothing but a fleeting incident from start to finish in the history of Egypt and Syria and Assyria and Phenicia that is a history way wider than the Jewish history.
From then until the 20th century, the Zionists could settle a large group of Jewish immigrants in Palestine under the mandate of Great Britain, and a small group of Jews lived in the country, and Palestine was empty of Jews for almost 19 centuries. Wars between 70 and 132 AD may be the most important factor of the reduction of Jews in the land. Benjamin from the city Todla, a Jewish traveler who met the Holy Land around the years 1170 to 1171, saw only 1440 Jews there, and Nahman Jerondy says that only two Jewish families were living in Jerusalem in the year 1267 AD.
Until the 19th century, the Jewish population of Palestine grew slowly and Jewish population in Palestine before the establishment of Israel has been very limited compared with the entire Jewish world. The following table shows the population of Jews living in Palestine in some years.

Between 1929-1924 the number of 82 thousand people immigrated to Palestine that most of them were from Poland due to economic problems and 29 settlements were built as well. Between 1939-1929 by Nazi regime coming to power in Germany, about 250 thousand people emigrated from Europe to Palestine and 27 settlements have been built. Between 1948-1939, 200 thousand Jews were established in Palestine and 79 settlements were made in connection with their settlement.
However, Israel can be called a nation of immigrants, because now 40 percent of its population includes people who were born outside of Palestine. In the early years of the establishment of Israel, the percentage was much higher.
Thus, immigration status in Israel is different from other countries. Jewish authorities have said a lot of statements about the need for immigration. Ben Gurion said: immigration can maintain the security of the state more than any other factor. Simon Peres also said that: immigration helps to military to strengthen its rule over the country and even the region. According to Maxim Rodenson the French Jew, in all this time the real inhabitants of Palestine were almost ignored by all. Prevalent philosophy in Europe at the time with no doubt was responsible for such a situation. Each area that was located outside the Europe, was considered blank, of course not empty of residents, but of culture, and because of that it was appropriate for colonization in opinion of the Europeans. In fact, Europeans could impose their will on everyone in most parts of the world without much difficulty.
According to the historical facts, the claim of Zionism is not valid which says that they are heir to Palestine and know the political history of this country equal with the Kingdom of Israel in the years before AD and take Hebrews into account as the original inhabitants of Palestine.
According to Roger Garaudy, Hebrew people are not the only residents of Palestine, but they are one of nations based on the "Fertile Crescent". They can never demand exceptional position for their own in this long history. Political Zionism starts changing and intentional occurrence of the Events and this issue is quite evident in textbooks of Israel as foreign propaganda, because only rare periods are considered in the history of Palestine, in where the Jews played the role and have had importance.
Interestingly, even European supporters of formation of state of Israel in Palestine were aware of this issue in recent centuries and raised it. For example, in 1920 when Great Britain's mandate over Palestine was discussed in the House of Lords of the country, English Lord Syed Naham declared:
I totally agree with the desire of Jews to find a national homeland, but I say that if the demand required a great injustice towards other people it should be ignored. The main Jewish homeland is not Palestine. Jews won this country after a brutal killing and never captured all of it which now openly are calling for. The validity of this claim is like this as if the descendants of the old Roman claimed domination of the United Kingdom, because the Romans ruled the British country as long as the Jews occupied Palestine, and they left much more useful and valuable works than what the Israelis in Palestine.
If we are supposed to consider claim of a conquer in several thousand years ago as a base, therefore the whole world must be overturned and the only real claim to Palestine is the right for its current residents that some of them were children of the people who lived there before the attack of Jews and the rest of them are descendants of the Israelites who became Muslim.
Aside from that, the famous contemporary historians have stressed the Palestine being Arabic and denial of the historical connection of the Jewish people with the land. Doctor Francis Emily, a member of Royal Committee, wrote in his investigation about the Arabs in Palestine:
These are the Arabs and not the Jews who had continuous and uninterrupted link with Palestine.
Arnold Toynbee, a well-known contemporary historian, emphasizes that Palestine is an Arabic land and the Jews have aggressively entered it whether in ancient or modern times. According to him:
At least the seventeen centuries and a half had passed since the date of settlement of Palestinians before Herzl began his Zionist movement.
James Ferbzer, the famous Scottish historian, also says:
Arabic Palestinian farmers are descended from tribes who lived there before the Israelis' attack during the time of Prophet David and they had not moved and have not been eradicated. Despite waves of conquests they remained stable in their lands and continued to stay in it.
Thus, according to historians and scholars (anti-Zionist Jews and independent researchers), Zionists' historic claim for the Palestine has no credibility and occupation of Palestine and the Israel's establishment cannot be justified based on the historical link.
