IMHO, you are confusing cause and effect. The effect of Jewish migration was colonial. The cause was indeed desperate necessity

The effect was displacement. It wasn't colonial because Israel is not a colony. Your basic premise is that if Europeans displace Asians, this equals colonialization and is utterly unacceptable. However, if Asians displace Asians, they may displace and ethnically clear to their hearts content; different rules for them.

This seems more than a little peculiar, as the results for the displaced people, whom you claim to care about, are the same. Not to mention that the results for the displacers are also different, if they were running for their lives.

Show me a post-colonial history of South Africa that puts all the blame on the Zulus and not on the Boers.
