the king can use this the idea that the non-chosen people are sub-humans and therefore are okay to kill

The Jews were chosen for only one purpose, to show the non Jews how to live love and serve God
They failed miserably at it and we're constantly being chastised by God for their failings
Being Jewish and being chosen wasn't a "good" thing as we imagine it
Israel was under constant threat
I am not sure what "chosen for" is clearly defined by you
I get called anti-semitic all the time just because I say I don't agree that the Jews are God's chosen people and because of that fact I don't think they have any right to land based on what a centuries-old book says.

Despite what the world likes or not, Israel is GOD's Chosen People.
What others think, should not matter to you.

But the “god” you are speaking of is just one of many. There are many others from times before the Hebrew written language AKA”modern standard Arabic” was around. Not saying that you are wrong but I believe “god” can be many different things to others chosen beliefs.[/quote
The God he is speaking of, is the one true God of Jewish and Christian belief. To them, there is only one God, all the others are imposters.

When you quote a user you need to scroll down past the quote word. Other wise it makes it look like I said what you just did. It’s all good though I got ya. But viewing another “god” as an imposter may offend others or just seem confusing to those are are well aware of Neopaganism.

While the Jews may or may not have any right to the land, if God wants them to have it, he'll give it to them. The Bible says we're supposed to look to Israel for signs of Jesus' return (as well as God's existence in the first place). If the Jews end up receiving all of the land promised to them in the Bible, then we're supposed to know who the one true God is and that He exists as it was written.

I'm talking the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Also of Moses and Noah.
The GOD I am speaking of is Not 'one of many' but in fact the one true GOD, Creator of all that exists. Your belief or not does not change the fact.
