No pagans ever deported jews. That's just being wrong about the chronology of events.
And never mind that time the Romans kicked the jews out of Judea.
that was after they tried to revolt and killed romans
That's not a "deportation" when Europeans conquer a place that's effectively outside of Europe, and then engage in expulsions, massacres, and ethnic cleansings as a strategy of pacification to counter revolts in the edges of an empire.
That's like saying that the Mongols "deported" Muslims from Baghdad.
That's not the right word.
Judea was literally already a Roman province. They gained it when Egypt was annexed.
Right, it was conquered.
Pagan Rome deported them from the city of Rome.
Not to mention Babylon and Rome deporting them from Judea, they were internal deportations, but still deportations.
Is that really how we use that word? I don't think it is.
