yes. God promised Abraham, the father of Israel, that the land was his. Therefore, since God promised Abraham that his seed would inherit, Jews believe that Israel is theirs based on God's promise. Either they inherit, or God is a liar, take your choice. The land grant was never recinded.

Most Orthodox communities have relaxed this principle and generally support Israel, not necessarily as a Jewish State but as a State with a lot of Jews.
