When? So far as I know there has never been a Palestinian state, nor any independent Arab state, in the Holy Land.
> European Zionists invaded and encouraged Arab Jewish mass immigration.
It was the Ottomans, yearning for tax money after losing a war to the Prussians, who in 1854 changed the tax laws to encourage immigration of all faiths to the holy land. Jerusalem was Jewish majority decades before British ever stepped foot on Holy Land soil.
Jewish migration only became illegal in the Holy Land in 1936, when the Brits specifically made Jewish immigration illegal in response to the big Arab riot that year. Do you remember all the fuss a few years ago when Trump suggested that Muslims should not migrate to the United States? Would not a similar response be warranted for targeting Jewish migration?
> The founding texts of Zionism, the Balfour Declaration and Nakba are all very well documented.
I do agree that the circumstances surrounding the founding of the state of Israel are very well documented. If you have something that contradicts what I've stated, I'd love to read it.
