Israel was founded out of aggression and war and forced expulsion. But she was on our side. Eventually on our side, after many centuries of our persecution, anti-Jewish racism and Western horrors perpetrated on Jews.
We Brits used our laws and armed forces to limit the numbers of Jews allowed to enter Palestine between the wars and after.
But funding by mainly the USA led the Jews/Zionists to gain the upper hand over the Palestinians and Arabs from 1945 onwards and in every subsequent war to the present day.
The lands on the E side of the Mediterranean has been a cauldron of division and hatreds and conflicts for thousands of years. Probably, since before Abraham moved into the Levant/Canaan.
The Arabs certainly refused to accept the compromise from the UN in 1947 over two states living side by side. This was a disaster for both sides but especially for the Palestinians - the Nakba (catastrophe and, ever since). Violence, strong arm tactics and aggression 'paid' - but to the everlasting detriment of both sides but more to the Palestinians who are the biggest victims of our side (the Judeo-Christian nations).
Both sides are racist, both sides use coercion, force, violence and war. But this has been the human condition from the start.
The two state solution for mutual Jew/Arab hatred is impossible. Only a S African like state, perhaps may work. Jewish supremacy lessens and Palestinian/Arab representation rises in an evolutionary process over many decades/centuries - if humanity can last that long.
We human have proved that strong arm tactics can win over the opponent's strong arm tactics. One strong tribe or nation can be ousted by another. But what a way for us hopeless humans to conduct ourselves on our one and only planet!
