The conflict between ethnic groups is much older though.

You mean with the Romans? They're the ones that did the diaspora, what did the Palestinians do before the Nakba exactly?

Any serious historian would put the start of the conflict to at least the 1910s. Pretending it started in 1947 is as wild as pretending it is "1000 years old".
