> Around 1900, 50 years before the formation of Israel, there were about 50k Jews (about 10% of the population).

That's a funny starting point to pick, since 1900 was about ten years after the beginning of mass Zionist migration to Palestine. How many were there in 1880?

Forget 1880, lets talk about the Jewish majority at 0 AD.
Those people are the ancestors of the modern-day Palestinians.
