Yes. "Hebrews" refers to our ancestors in the time of the Patriarchs. "Israelites" refers to our ancestors in the era from Moses until the First Destruction. After that we were (are) called Jews because most of us are from the tribe of Judah.
"Hebrews" (Ivrim) actually means descendants of Eber (Ever). Ever was an ancestor of Abraham (Genesis ch.10-11) and the earliest Hebrews were Abraham's uncles and cousins for several generations back. They were among the Western Semites and lived in northern Mesopotamia, near the confluence of the Balikh and the Euphrates. Poetically, however, Abraham himself is called Hebrew because that name (Ivri) also translates to "the other side." Abraham was figuratively on "the other side" since he was the only monotheist (Midrash Rabbah 42:8) until his teachings took root. His ancestors and cousins had slipped into idolatry well before his time, as is evident from Genesis 31:30, 31:53, and Joshua 24:2. For that reason, Jews do not bestow on them the honorific title of ancestors despite the genealogical connection. (See: Abraham's biography) The word "Hebrews" can continue to refer to Abraham's descendants until the lifetime of Jacob. After that, we prefer "Israelites," since Jacob was given that name by God (Genesis ch.35), and it is considered a national title; one of honor. "Israelites" refers to the people (Jacob's descendants) down to the Assyrian conquest (133 years before the destruction of the First Temple), some 2600 years ago. "Jews" refers to the people from the end of First Temple times, up to this day, because after the Assyrian conquest the Israelites who remained in the land were (and are) mostly from the Israelite tribe of Judah, and the land was then called Judea. But all the above terms are occasionally interchanged. In modern usage, we prefer to use the term "Hebrew" only to refer to the language.
Abraham (18th century BCE) was called a Hebrew (Genesis ch.14) because of his wider family.
We credit Abraham as our first ancestor despite knowing exactly who came before, since it was Abraham who founded our beliefs. Thus, "Hebrews" is often used to mean Abraham and his Israelite descendants, instead of his wider family. In this sense it can refer to the Jewish people.
Biblical tradition says that Hebrews were descendants of the legendary Abraham and, though him, of Jacob (also known as Israel). The putative descendants of Jacob are then known as Israelites, who include the Jews. In fact The Bible says there was at one stage a United Monarchy of what would later become the northern kingdom, Israel, and the southern kingdom, Judah, which was the homeland of the Jews.
Scholars have identified a different background to these people, while still considering them as one people. They say that the Hebrew people were actually rural Canaanites who left the region of the rich coastal cities to settle in the hitherto sparsely populated hinterland. So, in that respect they were the same people, as were the Canaanites themselves, although long after the Hebrews had forgotten their real origins, biblical tradition created an invasion of Israelites fleeing from Egypt. There may never have been a United Monarchy, with the archaeologist Israel Finkelstein saying that Israel and Judah had different cultures, different pottery styles and different dialects of the Hebrew language.
Hebrews and Israelites are the same people. Today they are called "Jews".

Those called Israelis are those who reside in the land of Israel as of now. Those who are Israelites are those who are descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, are scattered of out the land of Israel, and are of the 12 tribes of Israel. These people are traditionally considered to be the Jews although there are minority opinions that claim them to be African-American, Palestinian, and otherwise. So, the answer would be no, they are not the same people.
The Jews of Persia were Hebrews that moved to Persia. They were the same people.
Jews argue for the same reason everyone else in the world argues - to prove their point on a subject two of them were talking about.
The questioner is very confused. 'Israelites' and 'Jews' don't distinguish themselves from one another, and aren't fighting one another. Where animosity exists, it's between Israelites/Jews/Hebrews and others whose prejudice is so strong that they cannot bear the thought of a country administered by Jews, or, indeed, of a live Jew.

Hebrew people are also known as Israelites, because of the biblical tradition that they were descended from the patriarch Israel. In later times, the Hebrew people of the Babylonian Exile were known as Jews. However, the population of the northern kingdom of Israel had already been assimilated into other Near Eastern cultures and had lost their ethnic identity as Hebrews or Israelites. Conversely, not all modern Jews are descended from the ancient Hebrews.
The Jewish Shabbat is Saturday, from Friday sunset until Saturday evening. The same held true for the Jewish ancestors (Hebrews and Israelites). See the Related Links.Link: More about the ShabbatLink: Hebrews/ Israelites/ Jews
There are about six million Jews in the country of Israel (in 2015), and around 14 million Jews worldwide. Other than converts, all Jews are from Jacob's bloodline. God gave Jacob the additional name of Israel (Genesis ch.35), and it was Jacob who fathered the Twelve Israelite Tribes who are the ancestors of all Jews.

Jews and Hebrews are the same thing. So if a Jew marries a Hebrew, it's the same thing as saying two Jews got married. Also, no one calls us Hebrews anymore.
Hebrews Israelites and Jews are all the same group of people.In traditional usage:Hebrew (עברי) referred only to the ancient Hebrew people prior to the lifetime of Jacob or to the language of Israel.Israelite (×‘× ×™ ישראל) Referred only to the Hebrews from the time of Jacob until the time of the destruction of the Holy Temple in 586 BCEJew (יהודי) referred only to the Hebrews of the tribe of Judah, who returned to Israel after the Babylonian captivity, given that most of the tribes had assimilated into Babylonian culture. Some people even call these early Jews "Judeans."In Modern Usage:All three have been used interchangeably. Referring to Jews as Hebrews was particularly common in Europe up until World War II. In Jewish prayers, Jews are called Yisra'el (which could be translated as Israelite). Abraham is called the first Jew even though he was not from the Tribe of Judah (which hadn't formed yet), because "Jew now means "one who follows Judaism."
