A brief history of the land called Israel/Palestine/Canaan/the Levant. Who’s-killing-who viewer’s guide here: http://blog.ninapaley.com/2012/10/01/this-land-is-mine/

Cartoonist and free culture activist Nina Paley has released a new animated short satirizing and abbreviating the history of divine claims to Palestine. “I envisioned This Land Is Mine as the last scene of my potential-possible-maybe-feature film, Seder-Masochism, but it’s the first (and so far only) scene I’ve animated,” she wrote on her blog.

The song used in the animation is “The Exodus Song (This Land Is Mine)” by Ernest Gold and Pat Boone and performed by Andy Williams.
