Don’t be pedantic. European Jews launched Zionism, which sought to establish a physical nation state exclusive to Jews. It was a typical settler colonial enterprise, complete with the narrative of a DIVINE mandate https://twitter.com/the_Queen_V_/status/1313493172480335879
Claiming European Jews have multi-generational right to land despite the fact that they came from another continent would be like me kicking down the door of the house my ancestors lived in 10 generations ago and expelling the current occupants.
Most Jews who came to Israel in the 40s were from Europe. That’s a recorded fact.
The colony of Israel was conceived in Europe by Europeans and for European Jews. We can also talk about how they recruited Jews from the surrounding Arab world because they lacked sufficient numbers to build a population large enough to conquer the indigenous Palestinians
