There are 2.5 million non-Jews living in Israel, with full rights under the law. By contrast there are no Jews living in Palestine, nor will their ever be, because they want a Muslim only state but will tolerate a few Christians, pretty much like every other Muslim country in the Middle East.

Muslims seem a little obsessed about "purity", the Jews not so much.

eta - I forgot about the Hebron Jews, who need constant protection from their Palestinian neighbors because, well we kow what would happen without protection....
