I simply ask if your claim that the land was "given" to Israel is based on Genesis 35:10-12?

You misread what I wrote ...
... I said the land
wasn't "given" to Israel ... the land
was Israel ... meaning that this group of Canaanites were the first civilized people to inhabit that particular stretch of land ... they didn't conquer it by killing and forcing other civilizations off it.
The Arabs who occupy north Africa, the Levant, and Mesopotamia today are there because they killed and conquered previous civilizations who lived in those places. The Arabs have a homeland in Arabia ... and that's where they belong.
