Jews are a religion, not a race, and are not even an ethnic group, let alone a nation. The "jewish homeland" has to be tied to religion first and foremost, but because it's religious it can change. They can claim that Jerusalem is their "homeland", but why? Because of the location of a specific temple. But why is it not Bagdad or Basra since much of the jewish religion was built there?.

But we can do this with Islam too. Why is Mecca and Medina an Islamic "homeland"? Well, because of specific events that took place there. But what about places absorbed by conflict? Is Iran not part of Islam? Looks like Spain isn't anymore.

Religions don't really have a homeland, but the nations under them may. And where that nation's homeland is depends on it's nation. This is because religion is a pure abstract concept. It isn't tied to a place as much as it's tied to a moral philosophy.

Edit - Did it, and you're still crying about it like I didn't.
