I won’t argue with MeatballDom, but do consider carefully the effect of the end of the Ottoman empire on those who had been top dogs (ie: the Arabs of the area the Ottomans called ‘Palestine’)

In the 1920s the formerly colonised occupants (Bedouin, Maronites,Druze, Jews, Kurds etc) were happy the tables had turned. In a world where colonialism is being reevaluated, today’s “Palestinians” can be viewed as the last remnants of the Ottoman imperialists.

As such, the Arab side of the conflict can be seen as a reactionary attempt to restore things to the ‘good old days’. The Israeli side of the conflict is really complex now, as it is not just a Jewish survival thing. It is a multitude of ethnic and political groupings and is too complex/controversial to comment on here.
