I get the point but these are two very different circumstances. Israelites and Palestinians are both native to the area. Their ancestors were Canaans and Philistines. The ownership of land is the result of western powers deciding how best to divide and conquer.
Native Americans are native to the area and Europeans/Americans were not.
The vast majority of "Israelis" are 100% European whose ancestors converted to Judaism.
There's a reason Israel bans DNA tests. They want to keep up the illusion that they're still descendants of the people the Torah talked about.
