They are not colonists. They are from there.

Not really. They’re “from” wherever they’re from. If I follow your logic, then I’m “from” Germany and have the right to go back and demand land and housing in Germany. Or at least ask them to move aside and “share” since they’re “from there” also, even though they’re “actually already there.” Likewise England, where I have forbearers. And if DNA tests are at all accurate, then I have some claims in France, Sweden and Denmark too.

No. I’m “from” where I’ve been for the last 50 years. Saying people who are “taking back” land because possibly someone they’re distantly related to 2000 years ago lived there is nonsense. We might as well welcome the Navajo to reoccupy Arizona and Utah, and forcibly remove the white settlers who have been there for the last 200 years.
