Thats a somewhat unbalanced viewpoint about a complex situation. You must have a loose definition of the word genocide...
But anyway, thats a group of people you are describing. One that I am not a member of. How does it relate to me personally, or did you respond to the wrong post?
your right for a homeland is >based upon the holocaust.
The zionist movement started long before WW2.

And yes you are wrong. The collective guilt for atrocities against the jews for the past 500+ years in Europe was one majort reason for supporting the zionist cause. However, pramatists would say Europe was just happy to have a reliable foothold in the region..
