Is that the only point of the 5 items you want to debate? Hardly seems fair...even so, you are not providing any useful info. Anyway, I have some time to spare, so let's have a go at the one issue that you picked.

Israelis are not indigenous to Israel and arguably they are not one nation either. The evidence for this is pretty clear. If you were to pick 20 Israelis at random, you will likely find some blonds, blue eyes, green eyes, black hair, auburn hair, dark skin, ghostly white skin, etc. This from a tiny population.

Now if you were to take 20 Palestinians, they will look a lot more like each other than Israelis. Furthermore, the Pals would look more like their neighboring countries (though not quite) which is an evidence to their favor.

The Jews on the other hand, more resemble whatever country they came from (Germany, Ethiopia, Iran, etc) than each other.

What is more, there is evidence that the European Jews may be from Khazaria with little or no links to the Biblical Jews.

I can go on, but I think you get the picture.

Now how about you answer the other points in my post?

Incidentally, since we are discussing indigenousness of Israelis, it is my understanding that even the middle eastern Jews were never indigenous to Israel but migrants from Mesopotamia. What exactly is your claim to that land?
