The truth of the matter of course is that the Jews a) trickled into Palestine during both the Ottoman and British eras (both empires keeping a lid on Jewish immigration from Europe while allowing Syrians, Saudis, and Egyptians to immigrate at will) and b) upon getting here legally purchased every speck of land. Yes, there were some Jews who did create settlements in Palestine but these were largely in uninhabited areas and/or in regions where other Jews were a huge majority.
As for the expulsion of Arabs from the area, this was largely the unfortunate byproduct of a war that the surrounding Arab countries started (a genocidal war, no less). It's also a fact that over a half million Jews from Arab countries were ethnically cleansed as well, with the end-result of these two events being a typical war-time population exchange (https://paranoiacstoogetalk.blogspot.com/2023/10/on-fact-that-there-were-tens-of.html). I mean, I get it that this type of analysis may be a little too nuanced for those with Israel derangement but if we don't correct the record on this shit, who will?
