I don't think its really fair to say that Arabs started the war when, by the words of its own founders, Zionism was explicitly a colonial movement.
Israel in practice, from its inception to present day, is based in colonialism,
Literally ever since the 40s, Palestine has been growing smaller and smaller until the people, who once were the majority in the entire region, were basically ghettoized into gaza and an archipelago of territories in the west bank.
That is exactly what the United States did to the Native Americans, taking all of the land from them and forcing them into these tiny native american reservations.
I'm not a historical scholar so I can't go in depth into what happened in the 40s and before. But knowing that the founders of zionism intended for it to be a colonial movement and seeing how Israel has behaved like a colony since its reception is enough for me say that they probably weren't ever in the right.

And if I'm not mistaken, didn't the jewish national fund buy land from absentee landlords with the new jewish landlords subsequently kicking out the palestinian tenants?
Didn't stuff like that happen way before the war started?

Don't think every jewish person that came to palestine wanted to be a colonizer. There were many who just wanted to live in the land and be at peace with the arabs.
But I don't believe that that was the intention of the zionist movement.

Nah they are ghettoized. Look at the map of current Palestine. Palestinians are resigned to Gaza and a few enclaves in the West Bank.
