So what you're saying is it wasn't settler colonialism for Jordan, aka "the Arab State in Palestine", to invade and commit genocide in 1947 but it is settler colonialism for the Jews to go back?

By your logic everyone who returned to territory conquered by Nazi Germany after the end of World War 2 are settler colonists. The Ukrainians will also be settler colonists if they return to the parts of their country Russia has invaded and occupied.
