Unfortunately, most people today do not believe in the Bible. Even "pro-Israel" liberal Jews (who are allergic to everything chr*stians believe, even their own Bible) base their belief in Israel's legitimacy on the Holocaust and "democracy."
“legalistically speaking, there are three sites in Israel mentioned in the Torah which were purchased free and clear by the Jews; the Temple Mount itself, the Cave of Machpelah where Abraham and Sarah were laid to rest, and Jacob’s tomb”

Temple Mount -— Jordan
Cave of Machpelah — waqf (most of the time)
