  1. Over 70% of Israelis were born in Israel.

  2. Many of the remainder were young at the age of immigration, as most immigrants to Israel were historically not single working folk, but already-established families.

  3. Many of those immigrants are not European (or North American).

  4. A large proportion of those remaining are from countries which are either legitimately deeply antisemitic or no longer exist (such as emigrants from the Soviet Union).

  5. Would you advocate that policy of "Go back where you came from!" for the immigrants of any other country on earth?

Saying that Israelis can be expelled 'back to Europe' is not only ethnic cleansing, but utterly insane and racist besides.

By that logic that birth in Israel gives the right to stay there, this would in turn mean that this birth revokes the right to compensation for the ancestors that were murdered in the Holocaust or survived it and chose not to go back to Germany.

You cant have it both.

Also the Palestinians who were also born on that land and driven out, should then not have the right to return? This is just Imperialism and Apartheid with extra steps.

Unless the current illegal occupiers buy the land from the legitimate owners at a fair price and compensate the legitimate owners for the time of the illegal occupation, they have no right to remain on that land.

... how much 'compensation' do you think modern Germany is paying out to the descendants of Holocaust survivors, again?

Yes, they should.

Can't wait til you find out that your own land was once owned by another nation. Can't wait til we dissolve Germany, strip all the land from the so-called 'Germans' which inhabit it, and send 'foreign' Germans back to the land they came from, those filthy immigrants.
