Judaism isn't a race. Palestine belongs to Palestinians. Them converting to Islam doesn't exclude their claim of being natives. Europeans converting to Judaism doesn't make them native to the land. There are simple DNA tests to determine how native someone is to the Palestine region. The majority of Jews are not native. The majority of Jews in Palestine converted to Islam. The majority of Jews after the Zionist movement come from Europe.
You're operating by a paradigm in which land ownership is assigned to different ethnic groups according to DNA tests? That's an interesting idea; unfortunately, it's never been applied at any point in human history, so I'm not sure what you hope to accomplish by bringing it up.
As you say, Judaism is not a race in the narrow sense, but neither is it simply a religion, and certainly not a universalistic religion in the mold of Christianity, which applies itself across the world with little respect to place or ancestry. Jews are also an ethnic community, and, like many ethnic communities, they have a set of norms and rules for determining whom to induct (or expel). Jewishness is not a gene. You can't determine whether or not someone is Jewish by mailing off a cheek swab. (A lot of things in Judaism would be simpler if you could.)
Antisemites will treat Judaism as a race when it suits and as a religion when it suits. For contemporary pro-Palestinian activists, it usually suits to treat Jews as members of a religion, and to play up the idea that Ashkenazi Jews (never mind the existence of Sephardim, Mizrahim, etc.) are all the descendants of converts. Many Jews who migrated from Europe to the land of Israel during the modern Zionist movement were the descendants of Jews who were expelled from the land of Israel centuries beforehand. In that time, they maintained their connection to the land. Jewish prayer and ritual is replete with references to the land of Israel. A people who maintain their connection to their homeland remain indigenous to it, even after a prolonged period of exile. If the Jews who were scattered into Europe had assimilated, forgotten their history, and become a dispersed assortment of individuals indistinguishable from other Europeans, and
then migrated back to the land of Israel, you might have a point, but they didn't, so you don't.
The majority of Jews are not native.
Here you even seem to concede that some Jews
are indigenous to "Palestine." By your judgment, would those Jews (the ones with approved DNA profiles) have the right to live and govern themselves in their homeland?
Looking at events from 2000 years ago before Islam existed is silly because yes, they were all Jewish, as in, the Palestinians themselves were all Jewish.
I don't even know what you're getting at here. Islam was founded in the 7th century CE, so 2,000 years before that would be the Bronze Age, at which point the land was inhabited by numerous non-Jewish groups.
Also, there were no "Palestinians" around at that time because no such nationality had been invented and no such territory had been established. As far as I know, no one called the land "Palestine" until Herodotus in the 5th Century BCE, much later. The term "Palestinian" doesn't originally refer to the Arabs who would later move to the region, but to the area settled by the Philistine people. It's nonsensical to point at a Roman map reading "Syria Palaestina" and say, "See, it says Palestine, so that means the land belongs to Palestinians going back to when this map was created." "Palestine" is just a word that's changed meanings repeatedly with the passage of history. Modern Palestinians may be philistines, but they are not Philistines.
Judaism itself is an eastern religion about wearing turbans and doing mummification burials.
You are really cheating yourself if you allow yourself to remain this ignorant.

Israel is an apartheid regime / Zionism is an apartheid movement
The goal of the regime is to keep a large bulk of natives segregated so that the Jews can have a "Jewish state". Israel is a worst apartheid than South Africa ever was and the things they've done pale in comparison to what was considered a scandal in South Africa.
Because it's an apartheid regime, the borders were unilaterally decided by the Zionists
Palestinians never said "you guys can have Tel Aviv, but we'll have the West Bank and Gaza!".
Palestinians did not want to be segregated, they did not pick their borders, in fact, they perceive the place to be one country which they're native of. What you see is an unilateral military aggression being carried out by one side to maintain vote majority.
These two initial points are what most people miss the most. Normies look at this conflict as 2 foreign countries fighting each other, or Muslims trying to brainlessly exterminate Jews, that's not what this is. Understanding these two points will change your outlook completely, and we can develop it further:
