Israel wasn’t just started by immigration from Europe. It was also the immigration of Jewish communities that had been expelled from Arab countries. These communities existed in the Middle East for centuries. They’re not white. Sadly, there are no significant Jewish populations left in Arabic countries.

This post erases all the indigenous, Middle Eastern Israelis.

Running away from Europe after being ethnically cleansed is “colonialism”? Running away from Arab countries after being ethnically cleaned is “colonialism”?

White European Jews started colonising in early 1900s, before the first world war.

No. Stealing someone's land by killing their family and then stealing their house is colonialism.

You conveniently forgot to mention the israelis doing that.
