The Jews began returning to their ancient homeland in the late 19th Century. The Jewish National Fund bought up large areas of swampland and desert in Palestine. It was land that was unoccupied.
The Palestinians started minor incursions with Jewish villages starting in the 1920's, but it escalated into war when Israel declared statehood in 1948. The original plan was to create two countries. The Jews accepted this plan and the Palestinians did not.
The Israeli government is officially still willing to entertain a two-state solution, but the Palestinian Authority officially rejects this plan and officially refuses to recognize Israel.

Has the conflict in Gaza between Jews and Palestinians been resolved?

What two groups are in conflict over claims to Palestinian territory?
Jews and Palestinians.
Is the conflict in Palestine between Jews and Muslims?
The dominant conflict in Palestine is between Israelis (who are predominantly Jewish) and Palestinians (who are predominantly Muslim), but the conflict is a political one, not a religious one.
The conflict in Israel today is between which two religious groups?
It depends which "Conflict in Israel" the question is asking about. If it is asking about the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, the conflict is, strictly speaking, between Israelis and Palestinians which are national groups, not religious groups. However, the majority of Israelis are Jewish and the majority of Palestinians are Muslim. (However, there are numerous Muslim Israelis, Druze Israelis, and there are both Christian Israelis and Christian Palestinians.) If it is asking about Israel's internal political conflicts, they are often between Secular Jews and Religious Jews.
Who are the Jews fighting with over the holy land today?
Today, the Jews are not fighting with anybody. Actually, it's been quite a number of days. The general conflict is between the Israelis (who are majority Jewish) and the Palestinians (who are majority Muslim).
When was the war between the piskapaians and the Jews?
There is no such word as "piskapaians". Did you mean "Palestinians"?
How do the Jews and Palestinians resolve their cultural conflict?
There is no cultural conflict between Israeli Jews and Israeli Arabs (who are mostly ethnic-Palestinians) who live in Israel. There are religious and historical differences and certainly political disagreements, but there is no cultural conflict. The same could have been said of the Jewish communities in tolerant Muslim States, such as Umayyad Spain, Abbassid Baghdad, and Pahlavi Iran. This shows that the cultural conflict is not between Jews and Arabs (although Iran is not Arab) but between the types of government styles they wish to set up. The Jewish State is democratic and non-religious. Arab governments are by and large autocratic and partially theocratic (or based on religious values). The conflict between Arab States and Israel has not yet been resolved.
What is the war called between the Palestinians and the Jews called?

What is problem between Muslims and Jews in Israel?
Jews and Muslims in Israel have equal rights and responsibilities with one exception, Muslim Israelis do not have to serve in the Israeli Defense Forces whereas Israeli Jews do. Unfortunately, Israel is not a perfect country and as a result, a number of Muslim communities in Israel are underfunded and under-resourced. Some have compared Jerusalem to Washington DC where the Jewish communities live in relative affluence or as Middle Class and the Muslim communities are much more impoverished. This does create issues in trying to make sure funds are allocated between communities properly. There are also certain tracts of land held in reserve for Jewish settlement in Israel that Muslims cannot purchase or develop in order to keep certain areas of Israel in Jewish hands. Muslims and Liberal Jews are fighting to bring equality to these issues. If the question is referring to the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict (which is beyond the borders of Israel and into the Occupied Palestinian Territories), the causes of the conflict are outlined in the Related Question below: What are the causes of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict? It is worth noting that not all Israelis are Jews and not all Palestinians are Muslims.
Why Jews are repeating the same Holocaust of the Palestinians?
There was and is no genocide in Palestine. This is hyperbole. When this farce is revealed for what it is, the question is meaningless (since Jews are not perpetrating a Holocaust, but are merely engaged in an ethnic conflict). Please see the Related Question below for a discussion about whether or not the events in Palestine are a genocide for more information. As to why Israel is embroiled in a conflict with the Palestinians, there are numerous reasons and causes. Please see the Related Question to read about why there is an Israeli-Palestinian Conflict.
How many refugees are there because of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict?
In 1948-1955, 720,000 Palestinians fled Israel and 850,000 Jews fled the Arab countries.
