First, apples to oranges. Iraq, Afghanistan, and Ukraine are modern day problems and mostly fueled by the military industrial complex. Israel/Palestine has been a problem for thousands of years. There’s plenty of evidence to show Jerusalem was Israeli land long before any Muslim or Palestinian claimed it. (Even if you’re not into the religious side of it).

Second, for the sake of argument… let’s assume it was Palestinian land first… what’s it matter whose land it was first? Almost every country on earth was once occupied by someone else. Since humans have been alive… whoever wins the war, gets the land. Does that give someone the right to continue to murder their enemies thousands of years later?

Third, the West Bank and Gaza Strip were given away in promises that the violence would stop. It’s not a surprise that neither one of those were good enough.

the difference is that if Palestinians, Hamas, and Hezbollah would lay down their weapons and stop fighting… nothing would happen. If Israel laid down their weapons… the Palestinians and most middle eastern nations would wipe Israel off the map before we woke up tomorrow. Hamas is largely funded by Iran, even before 6B we just gave them. I’m sure anyone funded by Iran is completely innocent.
