It depends on what particular parcels of land you are talking about. Even within former Mandatory Palestine, there are an incredible variety of different parcels of land with different amounts of "rights" and historical and legal claims for Israelis and Arabs. There are some areas, such as the West Bank and the Gaza Strip where the Arab claim, on legal grounds is much better than it is in Israel. Conversely, Israel has a stronger legal claim for those areas owned by the JNF than elsewhere within Israel and a better claim for Israel than the Palestinian Territories. How the claims of one party stack up against those of the other party is more opinion than legal certainty.

No. Religion is a very small part of the war and is often used (incorrectly) to label Israelis and Arabs since most Israelis are Jewish and most Arabs are Muslim. However, there are many Muslim Israelis and Christian Arabs and Christian Israelis. For a discussion of the other numerous causes of the Arab-Israeli Conflict, see the Related Question.

What caused Israelis and Arabs to become enemies?

The existence of Israel is antithetical to most Arabs who still consider that region to be Palestine and to be stolen from its native inhabitants. Therefore, anyone loyal to that state (i.e. Israelis) are seen violent usurpers who need to be put down. On the flip side, Israelis see the Arab request that they completely surrender to an Arab Authority ridiculous because they argue that they have a Right to a State and will actively stop anybody who demands their flight or capitulation.
