They're not native americans.

Mandatory Palestine was controlled by British.
So it was not an inhabited nation, I guess.

It had someone living there, those someone's weren't asked and their land handed over to someone else. If we see it from the perspective of it having being a British colonial project, then it's even worse having gone from one colonial master to another without asking the natives.

Well, they were offered a partition plan, and instead of further negotiations chose to start a war.
Multiple wars, in fact, and managed to fail all of them.
