The Jews were conquered by the Arabs.

No. Judea was conquered by the Romans. The Jews rose up in several rebellions, slaughtering Romans until the Romans got sick of it, destroyed Jerusalem and scattered the Jews to the far corners of the empire. That was the Diaspora.

In other words, the Jews were acting like Hamas and got punished for it. The Palestinians are genetically virtually identical to the Israelis and have several key differences between them and the Arabs. So they either were Jews who remained behind and converted or both derive from the same ancestral tribe.
