First of all, who says there wasn't another group of people who were here before the Indians.
Archaeology? It's imperfect and incomplete, but it's all we've got. The arrival of humans in the Americas predates written records.

Secondly, unlike Israel kicking out Palestinians, we never kicked out the Indians.
No. We shot them, killed their game animals en masse, and put out blankets with smallpox virus on them for them to take. Biological warfare wasn't invented in this century.

But who said the Israelis drove out the Palestinians. There are still many Palestinians living in Israel who are Israeli citizens and vote. AND large number of the Palestinians who did leave did so at the instruction of the surrounding Arab gov'ts who assured them they would drive the Infidels into the sea and then everyhthing would be given back to them.

While were on this question, why haven't those surrounding Arab states taken in those refugees and given them citizenship?

They're still here. They can live on reserve if they choose or live in our cities and towns and have the right to vote like any other American.
See above comments about Palestinians with Israeli citizenship.
