After doing some reading - the Nazis did have a plan to export not exterminate the Jews early in the 1940s, to take the island of Madagascar which was controlled by France from France after defeating them and sending all European Jews there where it would be run as a police state by the Nazis. It was an unworkable plan.
As far as Palestine, many Jews had already made their way there in the early 20th century escaping the Russian Empire, settling in with the Arabs dwelling in Palestine. During the 1930's with Hitler in power, German and other European Jews who could see something wicked coming wisely got out, including Albert Einstein, emigrating to America and Palestine. The numbers of Jews in Palestine had now grown to about 150,000, 30% of the population of Palestine at the time which didn't make the Arabs happy. Britain since the end of WWI controlled Palestine under a mandate.
The Nazis hooked up in battle with Great Britain in North Africa early in WWII, had they defeated Britain in North Africa they did plan to move into Palestine and wipe out the Jews there with help from the Arabs.
