    All the Jewish people in Israel came from other countries though and a very large percentage of the population of Israel maintain dual citizenship. So they can return to the country they are a citizen of, or return to the country there parents or grandparents came from.

    Yes, they weren’t being treated well in those countries (to put it lightly) but that doesn’t make them entitled to someone else’s land. He’ll the reason most western countries supported creating Israel is because they wanted their Jewish populations to leave.

    It would be like unilaterally decided were going to take part of balkans and give it to the Romani people so they have their own country. They are persecuted and don’t have a country of their own, so why not?

      The vast majority of Israel’s Jewish population is native-born at this point. They have no connection to those countries. They likely don’t even speak the language. I do not see how that would be a good solution.
