This is pretty much how I feel about it. In addition to the argument just being wrong (the Jewish ethnicity is indigenous to the Israel/Palestine region, not Europe) virtually no one there now was cognizant in 48 so none of that matters. For the concept of the nation-state to work there has to be an element of "squatter's rights" to it effectively, if you live somewhere long enough it becomes yours. Saying otherwise takes you down some very ugly ethnonationalist roads.

I don’t know that most of the “pro-Palestine” crowd wants to forcibly remove Jews from the Holy Land. I would hazard a guess that they do not.

Hamas and virtually the entire Palestinian leadership does though. Which begs the question of why someone would call themselves "Pro Palestine" in the context of the conflict between Israel and Palestine when they don't agree with that.
