The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is much more nuanced. Both countries' current heads of state are kinda like "all this land is my country's, the other country should not exist." It's unclear who is right.
The Russo-Ukranian conflict is clear. One leader is claiming the land of the other, the other just want it back. Ukraine's government is not claiming half of Russia.
Edit: removed implied support for Hamas. Both militaries should burn. Hope for a quick end to the conflict for the sake of the civilians affected.
At the end of the day who is Isreal and who Palestine. If no one who was alive when Palestine was around can anyone rightfully claim it the land belongs to "Palestine". It's like the ship Theseus or something. Maybe I'm just dumb as fuck.
Just make the fuck up and work together instead of being greedy bigots.
You should tell that to Israel, which is expelling Palestinians from this land every week for decades. It is not the Palestinians who are claiming the land exclusively to themselves and expelling others from it. It is Israel doing that. I find it crazy that you somehow argue this as if Palestine is doing that.
Palestinians lost the wars. Multiple wars. At this point there really isn't a point in contesting against Israel when they can integrate with Israel peacefully instead.
Israel is not offering "peaceful integration". Have a look at Palestinians who already live outside of Gaza, in the rest of occupied Palestine. The only choices are leave, suffer or resist.
Palestinians don't offer peaceful integration either, since they like to resist so much as a group that Israelis don't know who they can trust.
Your sentence doesn't make sense. Moreover, the Palestinian stance of most groups has been integration and living together peacefully and happily. "Resisting" their expulsion and the murder against them does not contradict that.
Clearly they're only happy and peaceful with themselves. I wonder why they refuse to move when they're so clearly unhappy with the communities that surround them.
