Bush spoke of a "promise of God" for a "homeland for the chosen people" in Israel

* Bush calls Israelis a "chosen people"

* Bush says U.S. will always stand with Israel

* Scattered Palestinian protests on anniversary of Israel

JERUSALEM, May 15 (Reuters) - President George W. Bush told Israelis on Thursday they were a "chosen people" who can forever count on American support against enemies like Hamas and Iran.

Speaking of the "promise of God" for a "homeland for the chosen people" in Israel, Bush told the Israeli parliament after a visit to the Roman-era Jewish fortress at Masada: "Masada shall never fall again, and America will always stand with you."

He predicted the defeat of Islamist enemies Hamas, Hezbollah and al Qaeda in a "battle of good and evil".
