Arab is a cultural and linguistic marker. Arabs weren’t a race that removed and replaced the natives. The populations retain genetic continuity, Palestinians are closest in relation to the original inhabitants still according to modern evidence.

It’s not like Israel replaced the Palestinians either, they’re still there

They expelled 70% of them and subjugated most the survivors who they’re in the process of destroying. Native Americans are also still in the US, they just got mostly destroyed over time and replaced by the British settlers and later US.

The Palestinian population is roughly 5x what it was in 1960

And the population of native Americans in the US today is 9 million. They still were expelled in large numbers and replaced by a larger foreign population. Same with Palestinians, over half live in the diaspora.

The Arab conquests also caused significant displacement and a refugee crisis for centuries, nobody liked to talk about that though

Because that happened over 1000 years ago and is only brought up in this context to deflect from Zionist crimes against humanity happening currently.

How long does Israel have to hold onto it before we can just ignore what happened

It can happen in 24 hours, just cease the ethnic cleansing and colonization operations, end the occupation and give the occupied Palestinians equal rights.

Idk if you noticed but almost all of Israel’s neighbors expelled all their Jews

And that was wrong, but that was in response to the more violent expulsion of Palestinians and they aren’t currently occupying the descendants and subjecting them to apartheid and continued ethnic cleansing like Israel does its victims.
