Jerusalem was destroyed twice - and each time most of the Jews in Israel were deported:
- By the Babylonians under Nebuchadnezzar in 586 BCE. The Jews were deported to Babylon for 70 years. Some of them moved to Europe and North Africa during that time.
- By the Romans under Titus in 70 CE. The Jews were deported to Rome and from there they scatted all over the globe.
After all that unpleasantness with Vespasian and Titus the Jews were a conquered people and many of them were enslaved as was the custom in the ancient world. There is archaeological evidence that not all Jews had to leave and many of them were allowed to stay either in or around the city.
The main exile of Jews from Palestine came in 70 CE. However, there was always a minority of Jews in Palestine until 1950 when they became the majority.
