Nah, there’s a pretty recent religious cover but the whole Israeli project and everything that came from it is an example of Enlightenment values regarding nationality. The Gaza genocide isn’t fundamentally different from the Nakba, which was committed by atheists.
Nakba was committed by Jews who believed god promised them that land. Israel’s genocide is being supported by Europe and the US because Yahveh commanded the genocide of Israel’s enemies and said that Jesus won’t come back until Jews rule from the river to the sea.
Uh… to he clear, Ben Gurion didn’t believe shit about being promised the land of Palestine. Zionist leadership (and a good chunk of the rank and file, though I couldn’t tell you how much) at the time of the Nakba was atheist as all hell. The first conception that Palestinians would have to be removed from their lands was by the big man Herzl himself, and Herzl was also a committed atheist.
Gaza is an example of Judeo-Christian values.

citation needed. Why did Ben Gurion insist that Israel be in the lands described in the torah? Wasn’t he offered a homeland for jews in Madagascar?
Again citation needed. Also zionism is religious in nature. The concepts of jewish homeland in the land of zion are from the torah.
Zionism is a movement based on religion.
