Placing People not from your country that your country has been forcing to flee from country to country for generations onto land their many times removed ancestors fled, is not the normal definition of colonialism.
Would be closer to a deportation camp than a colonist camp.
Bruh, even in the Torah, Israel took Palestine by Military force, and have always been "occupiers" of land that wasn't originally theirs.
Wait does 2k+ years ago still count as western colonialism? If so that changes the balance all across the world.
I don't think most of us consider that real history. They prolly did a bunch of murder, but no Egyptian slavery or Moses.
