Reb Saunders believes, like a number of Orthodox Jews, that the Galut (the Exile from the Holy Land) was a divine act of punishment because Jews had violated the commandments that God had given them. When God believed that the Jewish people had repented and were ready for the Messiah, this Messiah would come and bring the Jews back to the Holy Land. Until that time, Jews will remain in exile. They see a Return to the Holy Land as being an act of blasphemy because Jews should wait for God to bring them into the Holy Land and not to physically move there of their own free will.

What is the land that GOD had intended for Israel?

The land of Canaan, now known as Israel/Palestine, according to the Bible. The Bible nowhere uses the name "Palestine" (and should not be used on any Bible map). "Provincia Syria Palestina" was coined by the Roman Emperor Hadrian (in AD135) as a derogatory term against the Israelites, renaming their homeland after Israel's ancient nemeses the Philistines. To call any part of Israel "Palestine" is to imply that the land belongs to the Philistines who no longer exist.

Does the Israeli-Palestinian conflict represent a struggle of right against right?

Yes. This is a conflict where both sides, the Israelis and the Palestinians, have rights to certain piece of land in the Southern Levant and those rights are in direct conflict. Jews believe they have a right to their ancestral homeland of Israel and Arabs believe they have a right to their ancestral possession of Palestine. Unfortunately, these two rights conflict because Israel and Palestine overlap.
