I was using your words from your post. If it was a purely tribal dispute between neighbouring tribes, one of which happened to be Jewish, why even bring it up? Nobody else mentioned it. I know you are compelled to shoehorn in something about Muslims in every single post, but not many would bring this up as an example of an expulsion and surely you are aware of the scores of expulsions from other places/states/countries - expulsions where all the Jews were forcibly removed?

As there were other Jews who were not harmed by Muhammad and his followers. The Jews Muhammad did confront, the "Banu Qurayza tribe" were a group of people from early Muslim times that originally had a a pact with Muhammad , but at some point, decided to side with the enemies of early Muslims. Of course folks have varying views of the Banu Qurayzas tribe during the times of early Muslims.
You are not answering the question. So there was a political dispute that angered the muslim tribe who were successful in throwing the Jews out of their homes. Why were these Jews "in the wrong" (
your quote)?
Quote:
it was due to the human errors of folks who happened to be Jewish.
What human errors? If this was a political dispute between tribes, why are you mentioning it in a discussion of expulsions of Jews throughout history?
Quote:
As I was able to call out bad Christians, you can also find that not all Jews, like any other group of people throughout history, were perfect.
Who said they were?
You are implying that some expulsions were justified, based on reasonable grievances or that some of these people that were expelled from their homes were expelled for being "in the wrong". Unless you are now saying that this tribal quibble in the time of muhammad was the only example of this?
Again, what other examples of Jews being expelled for being "in the wrong" can you point to? Why were they "in the wrong"? (Remember: you have a huge number of expulsions to choose from).
