Best Answer

Most Jews share a common Near Eastern Levantite ancestry with the Palestinian people but some Jews have intermixed heavily with their host people (i.e. Persian Jews with Persians, Spanish Jews with Spaniards, Polish Jews with Poles, etc.). Palestinians have been highly influenced by Arabs and by Islam but still retain similar cultural aspects as Jews. Arabic and Hebrew are somewhat similar (many similar words like malik/melekh, ane/ani, Allah/Eloah, etc. and grammar).

It depends on what you mean by Palestine.

If you are referring to the region of Palestine or the former Mandate of Palestine, the connection is that Mandatory Palestine was the Jews' historic homeland.

If you are referring to the current Palestinian Territories or the Palestinian Authority, the connection is that Jews formed the State of Israel which is currently engaged in a long conflict with the Palestinian Territories to create a peaceful solution for all citizens.

Please see the Related Question below for a discussion about whether or not the events in Palestine are a genocide for more information.
