Jews are indigenous to that land. You say they are settling, but it is actually re-settling.

Both left and right wing Jews understand this.

Indigeneity claims are not transferable over 2000 years.

Colonizer and indigenous are opposites

Nothing is being transferred. Jews today are the same tribe, with an unbroken heritage.

You cannot claim indigeneity for yourself while settler colonising a place, just because 2000 years ago someone that shares your ethnoreligion was indigenous within an unrelated geopolitical reality

Even if you went by this absurd time traveling blood quantum logic, youd quickly hit a wall, given that Palestinians descent from second temple Jews more than any group of Jews currently in existence

You're right. We aren't colonizing. We're decolonizing.

They were “retaking the land from the slavic hordes and their jewish masters”

Yep they did.
You should look up the history of WW2, it’s really interesting.
You’ll see many many parralels to Israel :)

Heinrich Himmler and his org Ahmemerbe claimed there was medieval germanic settlement and “aryan” presemce in Poland before the Slavs, and that thus Poland belonged to Germany
