What is the home that the Jews created in Palestine called?
Israel.
What was decided about Palestine as a home for the Jews?
The League of Nations approved the British Mandate for Palestine as a national home for the Jewish People as early as 1919.
Why was the creation of Palestine significant to the Jews?
It depends on what is meant by the term "Palestine". If it is referring to the British Mandate of Palestine, this was important for Jews because it established that it was in the international interest (League of Nations) to create a "national home for the Jewish people". Nobody aside from Jews had really wanted that or wanted to implement that for nearly two thousand years. If it is referring to the current Palestinian Authority, this was critical to Jews because it legitimized, to a certain extent, the Palestinian Arab struggle for identity and self-governance. Jews could no longer point to "amorphous Arabs" causing problems, but a specific and troubled population looking for a state of their own.
Who promoted the idea that Palestine should be set aside as a home for Jews?
The Zionists.

Was Palestine Carthage or Babylon home of the Hebrews?
None of these. The home of the Hebrews was Israel. After the year 70 CE, when they were kicked out of Israel, The Romans renamed it "Palestine" (but the home of the Hebrews was never called Palestine).
Why do the Arabs who live in Israel call themselves Palestinians when Palestine means 'home of the Jews'?
The question is based on an incorrect supposition, namely that "Palestine" means "home of the Jews". Palestine was the Roman name for the territory and referred to the Philistines, who had been historic enemies of the Jewish Kingdoms in the area. The Palestinians use the terms "Palestinian" and "Palestine" because those were the terms used by the colonial forces. Prior to the arrival of British and French colonization of the Levant, people in Israel, Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria all called themselves "Shamite" which is usually translated as "Greater Syrian". After colonization, each began to identify with the territorial boundaries of the various new mandates.
Why did some of the surviving Jews stay in Europe?
