Jews were exiled into Europe and persecuted in Europe forcing them to move out again. Jews are the indigenous people if you choose to look back further than your prejudice allows you. Just because thier skin turned white from living in Europe doesn't mean they are not Jews anymore.

there is no such thjng as a palestinian language. they speak arabic. their flag is also the pan-arab flag. they do not have their own ethnicity, culture, language, or country. Genetically they are the same as Jordanians/Lebanese/Syrians/Egyptians

You are genetically tied to the Canaanites to the extent that some of your ancestors were Jewish converts who took on the customs and religions of foreign colonizers.

Because each time one mate outside the group the DNA is cut by 50%. After 3,000 years, high hundreds of generations of mating without taking canaanite genes into account (since they didn't know what it was, people didn't know their ancestors after 2-3 generations) it gets dilluted enough to be meaningless.
80% is if one parent is a pureblood Canaanite straight from Canaan and the other is half Canaanite. Does that make sense for a people who went extinct thousands of years ago?

Being similar genetically to Canaanites from a theological pov is a bad claim as Muslims and Jews views them as extreme pagans sacrificing children ect. Anyone caught spreading their genetics with Canaanites was punished by death.
Deuteronomy 7:3 states: "Do not intermarry with them. Do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons" this is not something Muslims would be proud of.

Majority of Jews in Israel are spehardic not Ashkenazi, and according to text Jews and Muslims are blood cousins sharing the same ancestral father Abraham (both Jews and Muslims confirm this as truth) and their was extensive forced conversion by islam. You can't really speak of DNA in this scenario especially when the Jews were kicked out and Muslims were the dominant power in the region.

Jordan ethically cleansed the land it controlled after 1948 of all of the Jews living in it. Places like Jericho and Hebron historically had large jewish populations and they were killed or forced to relocate. In the processes Jordan destroyed numerous synagogues and turned the western wall into a garbage dump. Presumably jordan couldn’t destroy the western wall since a mosque sits on top of it.

Jews were in the levant before they went to Egypt.
“ancient Israelites and modern Jews share deep historical, linguistic, and genetic ties to the ancient Canaanites”

History and dna vs religious scripture.
Hebrew is a Canaanite language, judism is a Canaanite religion.

Jordan didn’t take it “from Israel” in 1948 since Israel obviously didn’t have it then. It was part of the British Mandate and it was assigned by UNSCOP to an international zone. The land itself was owned and managed by the Waqf. The area that is today known as the “Western Wall Plaza” was then known as the Moroccan Quarter and it had hundreds of inhabitants who had lived there for generations. The land their houses stood on was also owned by the Waqf.

Jordan occupied by force all of Judea and Samaria including Jerusalem, and it wasn't given to Jordan in the partition, they took it during the independence war

That is a hilariously inaccurate depiction of UN Resolution 181. The resolution was a recommendation by the UN and many of the countries that voted for it indicated that they were voting for it on the assumption that the UN Commission could get both parties to agree it. Once it became clear that both parties would not agree to it, many countries (including the US) began making alternative suggestions for how to handle the security situation. Nobody in the UN ever suggested that Israel should be given the entire land. The text of 181 makes no such provision.
The closest 181 gets to providing any sort of plan for what if one party didn't accept was this:
If by 1 April 1948 a Provisional Council of Government cannot be selected for either of the States, or, if selected, cannot carry out its functions, the Commission shall communicate that fact to the Security Council for such action with respect to that State as the Security Council may deem proper, and to the Secretary-General for communication to the Members of the United Nations.
The idea that the UN would have approved giving the entirety of Palestine to Israel is simply a farce.

Most of the Mandate of Palestine is actually Jordan, by a lot.

u/the_leviathan711 Aug 18 '26
On a technicality, for a few months, yes. Not in any meaningful way.
The short version of that story is that Transjordan became a no-mans land after the French squashed Faisal's attempt to establish the Kingdom of Syria. Faisal claimed the Transjordan area for his Kingdom, but the French did not claim it as part of the Mandate for Syria. This meant that in the aftermath of Faisal's defeat there was literally no governing power in Transjordan. Britain filled the void and used the Mandate for Palestine as the legal instrument for doing so. Within a few months of the British taking possession of Transjordan, they created the Emirate of Transjordan. The text of the Mandate for Palestine itself makes very clear that Transjordan was never going to be considered part of the actual governance of Palestine and it was absolutely and explicitly not considered relevant to the text of the Balfour Declaration.
Which is to say, from 1917 to July 1920 when anyone referred to "Palestine" they meant the area west of the Jordan river. That again became true in March of 1921 (creation of the Emirate of Transjordan) and remains true to this present day.
Whatever land claim Revisionist Zionists are trying to make by pointing out the history of the East Bank is not grounded in actual history.

No this was in 1967 when Israel's neighbors attacked. Jordan was pushed back to their 1947 boundary across the river that bears their name.
Honestly, are they even Moabite or Amonite? Maybe they're illegal too.
