    Because the Holocaust happened and although Jewish people weren’t the only demographic to be murdered by nazis, they did face the brunt of it. Add to that a 2000 yr diaspora and you can see why they would like a homeland.

    The problem is Palestinian people lived on that land for 2000 years so they have a right to it as well.

    Imo the best thing to do is divide Israel in half and give Jewish and Palestinian equal portions. But we’re a long way from that happening, if ever.
