Then a bunch of religious fanatics from Europe descended on Palestine, kicked out the Palestinians, and created a homeland.

I think the American Indian situation is more analogous to the Jews who are claiming that their people lived there 2,000 years ago and thus they have a right to the land.

Didn't a bunch of religious fanatics from Europe decend on what is today America, kick out or kill the Indians, and create a homeland?
