Israel didn't drive them out (not the vast majority, anyway), they fled during the attack of 5 Arab armies in 1948, which outnumbered Israel by more than 5 to 1 in men and ammunition. That never happened to Rhodesia.

Nonsense. Read up on the 1'st & 2'nd Matabele Wars and the Shangani Patrol. Normalized to white population, both the size of the foreign forces, and the white deaths are way higher than what happened to Israel in 1948.

And true to form, after the whites won the wars, they saw this as justification for claiming the country. Sound familiar?
