The idea of a Jewish nation? The founding myth of Israel-was invented around 1881. Jews were never exiled from the Holy Land; Palestinians are descendants of the original inhabitants; many Jews are descendants of the Khazar Khaganate in modern-day Russia (the Ashkenazim); the Zionist ideal of return to the Promised Land was alien to Judaism; exile = a Christian myth.
