And this is why I say Jews are still European despite the oppression historically felt from the other members of the European family. Again Argentina makes the most significant point here (because of the lack of the Biblical argument/justification) but modern-day Israel can be used as well. To claim a "homeland" in someone else's home and then make rules about who is allowed to become a citizen and who is not allowed is about as "racist" as one can get. The IDEA itself is problematic because one feels that they can go anywhere and rule without regard to previous inhabitants.

Europe has a history of sending its unwanted citizens to other people's backyard only to find that in a few years, those people are either dead or told that their home is no longer theirs.
