They didn't. They established themselves in Israel. The country was only renamed Palestine by the Romans AFTER the Hebrews were kicked out.

Tradition says they established themselves in Israel by Abraham, around 2000 BCE. Later, they return to Israel and had to battle the Canaanites, who moved in after them.

Modern scholarship suggests that they actually WERE the Canaanites.

How were the Hebrews able to establish themselves in Palestine?

If this is referring to history in general, the region of Palestine was the historic Jewish homeland. It would be like asking: How did the Bushmen get to Namibia? -- It's where they come from and where they've lived for many centuries. If this is specifically referring to the Return of Jews in large numbers to the region of Palestine in the last century, it should be noted that there was a relatively large Jewish minority already present in the region prior to the Jewish immigration from elsewhere. Those Jews who did arrive immigrated through normal procedures until Israel declared independence. Jewish immigration substantially rose from 1948-1955, especially from the Arab countries which had forcibly expelled their Jewish populations. They came primarily by boats and planes.
