The Jews got blown out of the Middle East back in Biblical times and Europe back in the 1940s. As a consequence they headed back to the Middle East, which had been destabilized and colonized by European nations. While Europe drank deep of Arab oil the Arabs decided the Jews were offensive and thus pursued a policy of mutual annihilation. The Jews want to survive more than the Arabs want to kill them, though, so it's taken a long damn time to settle.

You should also know that there are:

- 6.2 million jews in Israel (75% of the population)

- 5.4 million Jews in the United States (1.8% of the population)

- 1.1 million Jews in all of Europe (0.22% of the population)

- 1.1 million Jews in the entire rest of the world

Which is why Europe and the US never see eye-to-eye on Israel. There were 9.5 million Jews in Europe in 1933 but Germany, Austria, Poland and Russia killed 6 million of them. And, it should be noted, did not give them back their stolen land, money, possessions or jobs when the war was over. As a consequence, the whole "you're taking their land" argument against Israel from Europe (or the United States, for that matter) doesn't come from a position of moral authority. The fact that the money and weapons for both sides of the conflict come from Europe and the United States doesn't help either.
