The Jews and the Israelites to their north are traditionally believed to have migrated there from Egypt, where they had been enslaved. It is also traditionally believed that centuries earlier their single forefather migrated from the city of Ur in Mesopotamia. Historians say these legends are not really true, and that the forefathers of the Jewish people were Canaanites who migrated from the region of the rich coastal cities and settled peacefully in the hitherto sparsely settled hinterland.
Though about 85% of Israeli inhabitants are Jewish, they don't necessarily come to _you_ from Israel. Judaism is hereditary and is determined by the religion of the mother. If a child's mother is Jewish, so is the child, and he will be accepted in Jewish society. There are not many Jewish converts due to the fact we are very selective and the requirements are harsh.
Israelis are mostly Jews who have returned to Israel from all over the world. There are also a few Jews whose family lines had never left Israel. Finally, there is a population of Arab Israelis who are Arabs that were living inside the borders of Israel at the time independence was declared.
