New Jewish country? It was a Jewish nation first and Jews have lived there FAR longer than Arabs.
This is more like if the US lost WWII and the axis decided to give the Native Americans back their territories.
Even according to the Bible/Torah it wasn't a Jewish Nation first, it was a "Promised Land" which they conquered.
Also, the concept of a "nation" didn't exist until the late 1700s. There were Jewish tribes in the Levant region, along with a ton of other tribes, many of which were just loose clans of family groups.
I thought Jews were Arabs.
It gets really into the weeds.
As an ethnic group, Arabs trace back to Abraham through his first son Ishmael from his concubine Hagar.
Jews trace back to Abraham through his son Isaac and grandson Jacob, who was renamed Israel.
Ethnic groups don't trace back to single people, especially not ones from fairy tales.

Tracing their lineage to Abraham and Ishmael is literally the common element that ties them together as an ethnic group.
Like I said, fairy tales. According to tradition women were also made from a man's rib and people lived for hundreds of years. None of that is real.
Which isn’t really relevant because that fairy tale is the common thing that ties them together. That’s what a fucking ethnic group is. It’s not a race or anything.
Religion, ancestry, and tradition are the big things that join Arabs together as an ethnic group.
