Most likely alternate Israel

[B_Munro]

At the same time, if they could manage the natives, either by assimilation or less suitable means, they would be on an island, meaning this Isreal, even if it did have to deal with a Palistinian-like issue with the natives, would not share borders that want to see them destroyed. That alone would change the Isreali national identidy a bit, don't you think?

Don't think they'd take the whole island: there were over 4 million inhabitants OTL by 1950 (a time when OTL Israel, IIRC, had less than 2 million) - too many to manage except as a South-Africa type regime, and I doubt the Jews would want that. So I expect they'd be sharing borders with _one_ country that would like to see them destroyed, or at least not liking them much.

I'd bet the most likely alternate Israel is: no Israel. Israel loses the 1948 war, and ends up a brief footnote to histories of the Holocaust. Nearly all Jews in the world live in North America.

lets see, there's Jodensavanne, the Khazar Khaganate, the Principality of Malabar, Jewish Autonomous Oblast, Kimberley and Northern Australia, Alaska, and of course Zionist Uganda

there was talk by Herzl about Cyprus or el-Arīsh, Leo Elton in 1935 looked into Albania as a place, and the Vietnamese government says there was a plan between Ho Chi Minh and Moshe Dayan to move the Jews there if Israel fell

my favorite was of course an American try, Ararat city

No chance at all they could get along?
