With reference to Chris's point, the state of Israel was established in May 1948, before that time Israel did not exsist.

"The Land of Israel, known in Hebrew as Eretz Yisrael, has been sacred to the Jewish people since Biblical times. According to the Torah, the Land of Israel was promised to the three Patriarchs of the Jewish people, by God, as their homeland;[24][25] scholars have placed this period in the early 2nd millennium BCE.[26] According to the traditional view, around the 11th century BCE, the first of a series of Israelite kingdoms and states established rule over the region; these Israelite kingdoms and states ruled intermittently for the following one thousand years.[27] The sites holiest to Judaism are located within Israel.
Between the time of the Israelite kingdoms and the 7th-century Muslim conquests, the Land of Israel fell under Assyrian, Babylonian, Persian, Greek, Roman, Sassanian, and Byzantine rule"

"By c. 1190 BCE, the Philistines arrived and mingled with the local population, losing their separate identity over several generations."

Both sets of tribes/peoples appear to have arrived about the same time, approx 3000 years ago.
