You'll have to explain what you mean by Jewish person to me because it's honestly so watered down as to be meaningless now. Do you mean Jewish people like the ones who were native to that region when those artifacts were left? Do you think those Jewish people were white and didn't bother coming back until right after sunscreen was invented? Do you mean people who follow the Jewish faith? Because those people don't support the existence of a modern-day Israel?.
The white zionists who stole Palestine were offered other locations to have a Jewish state and they insisted on using terrorism and Nazi collaboration to go there instead.
If for you “people” is a genetic thing, you're also racist.
It's absolutely a question for me given that I'm Ashkenazi Jewish but atheist. My family came here from Germany after the Holocaust and now are just white because nobody practices the religion and that's how almost all Ashkenazi Jews self-identify in the United States. I have no meaningful connection to Palestine whatsoever and don't really agree that other white people have some kind of right to it.
It is a simple fact that Zionism didn't really take off until sunscreen was invented and that's for a reason. If white people descended from Africans 10,000 years ago came up with some kind of genetic marker or religious excuse would you agree they should use violence to take African cities from their inhabitants?
