Who has the most rights over land Israelis or Arabs?

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.
