The funny part about that is the Old Testament is full of stories of the ancient Jews doing exactly that.
After a certain point- it is rather pointless to call a people 'colonists'. Because if there is no 'statute' of limitations then virtually no peoples could not be called 'colonists' including the Jewish people in Israel/Palestine/Judea.
Let me put it another way: As you acknowledge the Palestinian Arabs have been there for 1,000 years- we Americans colonized the United States a mere 400 years ago. Certainly we are not going to be kicked out because we
"Killed or threw out all the native inhabitants and now pretend like they own the place"
Both Jews and Arabs- both Jews and Muslims- will continue to be citizens of Israel.
They seem to be dealing with that far better than you can.
LOL
You might ditch the religious dogma and try learning a little history.
And why, specifically are you lying ?
The vast majority of Arab muslims arrived in the second colonial period of the late 20th century.
So really your nonsense about "killed and threw out the native inhabitants" line is pure fantasy.
The question you are avoiding is, Why the Arab Muslims have stuck to a genocidal agenda instead of ever giving peace a chance
Constantly lying and spamming a fake chart without providing its Hasbara source. Virtually no Arabs arrived in Palestine in the 20th century the Arab population growth was almost entirely natural growth. The arrivals from outside of Palestine were European Jews as officially reported by the UN before they took the decision to give more than half of Palestine to the European settler colonists.

(b)IMMIGRATION AND NATURAL INCREASE
15. These changes in the population have been brought about by two forces: natural increase and immigration.
The great increase in the Jewish population is due in the main to immigration. From 1920 to 1946, the total number of recorded Jewish immigrants into Palestine was about 376,000, or an average of over 8,000 per year. The flow has not been regular, however, being fairly high in 1924 to 1926, falling in the next few years (there was a net emigration in 1927) and rising to even higher levels between 1933 and 1936 as a result of the Nazi persecution in Europe. Between the census year of 1931 and the year 1936, the proportion of Jews to the total population rose from 18 per cent to nearly 30 per cent.
16. The Arab population has increased almost entirely as a result of an excess of births over deaths."

Pffft. What's been clearly proven as even the UN and many historians and researchers including from Harvard and Princeton have stated is that there was no reliable way to acquire what the actual numbers of people that were coming into the region were, once the British took over. The entire region was in flux, and there was no way to calculate the massive illegal Arab migration.
There was no Arab illegal immigratiom.
"59. The conclusion is that Arab illegal immigration for the purposes of permanent settlement is insignificant."

Conversely:
"
It follows that the Jewish population may now include between 50,000 and 60,000 illegal immigrantswho have settled in Palestine at any time since 1920 when the first Immigration Ordinance was enacted."

A Population Boom
As Hussein foresaw, the regeneration of Palestine, and the growth of its
population, came only after Jews returned in massive numbers. The Jewish population increased by 470,000 between World War I and World War II while the non-Jewish population rose by 588,000. In fact, the permanent Arab population increased 120 percent between 1922 and 1947.
This rapid growth was a result of several factors. One was
immigration from neighboring states — constituting 37 percent of the total immigration to
pre-state Israel — by Arabs who wanted to take advantage of the higher standard of living the Jews had made possible. The Arab population also grew because of the improved living conditions created by the Jews as they drained malarial swamps and brought improved sanitation and health care to the region. Thus, for example, the Muslim infant mortality rate fell from 201 per thousand in 1925 to 94 per thousand in 1945 and life expectancy rose from 37 years in 1926 to 49 in 1943.
The Arab population increased the most in cities with large Jewish populations that had created new economic opportunities. From 19221947, the non-Jewish population increased 290 percent in
Haifa, 131 percent in
Jerusalem and 158 percent in
Jaffa. The growth in Arab towns was more modest: 42 percent in Nablus, 78 percent in Jenin and 37 percent in
Bethlehem.
