NOETHNICITY:
A lot of you people just argue without knowing exactly what is being discussed

Read what a Palestinian wrote below
Okay let me ask you where do you think Palestinian Christians come from? You think they too have no link ancestry to the land?

Have you ever seen seen a Palestinian who claims to be a Jew?
Their first and well known leader, Yasser Arafat, was born in Egypt to Egyptian Arab parents.

Yeah, there were Palestinian Jews known as Must’arabum.

After Isreal was created in the land of Palestine and war broke out, most of them fled, and the few who stayed back absorbed in Isreal. Isreal is even accepting citizenship from whites who convert to the Jewish faith.

you guys will just keep saying trash while attempting to sound educated. The word Jew is derived from judaism which is a religion not ethnicity. While there are arab Jews, Persian Jews, European Jews etc. People can convert to become a jew while the religion started from the tribe of children of Israel (bani israel). But in order for the thieving zionists to colonize and occupy a region that's not theirs, they turned it into an ethno-religion. Ofcos they rely on people like you to further their agenda.

Ok,Mr encyclopedia, agreed the world jew simply refers to adherents of Judaism,but then if the Quran n prophet Muhammad talked about the bani Israeli in the middle east thousands of years ago,how come the migratory Arabs in Palestine n the rest of you don't want to accept that the Israeli have land but are only forcefully occupying Palestinian land?

let me ask you some questions: 1. were there no Jews living in palestine before the creation of the state of israel? 2. Did the Palestinians not receive Jews and Armenian refugees in the past? 3. Why do the isrealis only invite mostly Europeans Jews if its not colonisation and why displacing palestinians and having an apatheid? Migratory Arabs you say? Their DNA match the ancient original habitants of their area more than the ashkenazis whose dnas are Europeans. They speak arabic because of the growth of islam. Some Muslims in Nigeria can't speak English but are fluent in arabic too (will you call them arabs). Moreover their ancient language of hebrew and aramaic became extinct.

If we even accept that all Jews migrated from ME and are all descendants of Isreal ( Jacob) and need to go back, why displace Palestinians becauese of religion? It is like saying the Yorubas in Brazil and other carribbean countries (both white and black) who still practise Isese (Yoruba Traditional religion) should come back to SW and we practising islam or Christianity should leave because they were originally from here. Would you support it if everyone in the world decide to reclaim what they believe belonged to their ancestor 5,000yrs ago. By their logic everyone migrated from somewhere too and for anyone who believed Adam and eve were the first humans on earth, we should all have claim to a piece of ME since they are our first ancestors.

The Palestinians are the owners of the land but there are now over seven million Jews there. The Jews have an historical attachment to the land because it was where their ancestors lived two thousand years ago. Anybody that wants to solve the problem should be thinking about how to compensate the Palestinians as they are the only people to be driven from their homes in the twentieth century.

I totally agreed with most of what you said except Jews have historical ties to the land. My question is which Jews? Ashkenazi Jews are complete Europeans that converted to judaism. Many Jews still lived in palestine and other ME countries before the creation of the state of israel. The colonizers do not plan to stop grabbing more lands (greater israel) so they won't even compensate anyone.

There would have been no Jews in Europe if not for the Roman and the Greek empires. All Jews would have been Arabs. However they stayed in Europe for two thousand years and had become Europeans but this does not change their history and they held themselves separate in Europe. What I am saying is that the crowd supporting the Jews and not only the Jews should have explored the option of compensating the Palestinians. Local Jews were not up to ten percent of Palestine early in the 20th century. However two thousand years ago the place was majority Jewish
