Why do many nations attempt to take the Land of Israel, especially Jerusalem, away from Jews? The answers are found in THE BIBLE:

[1] In the Biblical Book of Joshua (chapter 23, verses 12 to 13), G_d Himself warns that intermarriage with non-Jews will cause the Jews to fail in their attempt to conquer the Land of Israel.
Even worse, G_d also warns that intermarriage with non-Jews will cause the Jews to be pushed-out-of the Land of Israel.

[2] In the Biblical Book of Jeremiah (end of chapter 17), the prophet warn that Jewish sovereignty over Jerusalem depends on Jews observing Shabbat, the Jewish Sabbath.

[3] The Biblical Book of Tehillim [Psalms in English] (chapter 105, last 2 verses) teaches that G_d gave the Land of Israel to Jews because He wants Jews to carefully obey His commandments [chukav].
