Sura 17:104

"And we said to the Children of Israel afterwards, "Go live into this land. When the final prophecy comes to pass, we will summon you all in one group."

Curious that the Muslims usually ignore this one isn't it?

I believe that's the verse that a conservative imam pointed to a while ago, saying "ummm... guys... Allah says that this land belongs to them, not the Palestinians." Needless to say, the "true believers" were more convinced of their own views than their religion's own teachings. He was promptly silenced by a death threat if I remember correctly.

Just goes to show that Islam does not do a whole lot to make virtuous people out of its zealots.

This sura is abrogated by suras 9 & 5(the last Medina period), which deals once and for all with Infidels.
I am not sure if you are aware that suras weren't collated in a chronological order.
It happens that suras 9&5 are the last from Mo's Medina period and whatever happens last abrogates previous revelations.
[16:101] And when We put a revelation in place of (another) revelation, - and Allah knoweth best what He revealeth - they say: Lo! thou art but inventing. Most of them know not.
