So I think I have a basic grip on this conflict, the modern times at least, it’s basically a back and fro attacks of Israel and Palestine military, about who the territory of Gaza Strip and West Bank.
But who the most legitimate claim to those lands? The region is called Palestine, and Israeli only settled there after the second world war after the land was “assigned” to them. So am I right to presume that Palestinians are the native people of this land, and the State of Israel is just trying to get rid of them?
Its not that simple because more than the land, the religion is the problem. Neighbouring countries have an issue with that, which goes far beyond a claim of land. Its less of an “We want that land so we can live there” and more of an “We want those jewish people out of here”.
Israel even offered them land (as part of the two-state-solution which the Hammas stopped in the end) but that is not what they want.
Why do you think neighbouring countries, who themselves own land that was originally part of Palestine would attack Israel to claim land for… what really? For Palestine? A country that doesnt even exist anymore?
