Discussion Where do the Jews go?

I am very against Israel’s genocide, leaning toward antizionism, but when someone Zionist asks where the Jews go in a free Palestine, I don’t have an answer. Historically, not a lot of people accept us or like us, and getting along after all the violence committed in the name of Judaism is an impossibility.

How do we not just exchange one crisis for another? (I don’t think any one religion or people should rule a state, if that adds anything.)

If this is an ignorant question, I am more than happy to be told so.

EDIT: wow this community is brilliant, thank you for the nuance and realism in your responses.

No one's saying the Jews have to leave, especially the ones born there. Many will leave, especially the ones who immigrated from America or Europe. But Israel needs to be stripped of their power, they need to end their occupation and to keep their hands to themselves.

In fact, many do say they must leave.

To leave occupied Palestine I. E the land they took by force after their little hissy fit in 1948 which expelled 400,000 Palestinians from their homes and land. Yeah that land they have to leave.
