== "One of the founding nations of the EU - Germany - has a Law of Return quite similar to Israel's" == 

 This isn't actually true, is it? Germany allows people whose ancestors were citizens of Germany to return, but AFAIK it does not allow the descendants of Anglo-Saxons to "return" to Angeln and Saxony. Israel, by contrast, allows all Jews to "return" to Israel, even if they can't trace a particular ancestral line to anyone who lived in the modern state or even mandate Palestine. —
