I think it's crazy how much they're trying to get Gaza or trying to win over Palestine however they can, even if it means killing thousands upon thousands of people's lives. At this point, it looks like they're doing all of this to show off, not really wanting the land at all. They seem to want to look like the strongest and it's seriously not doing anything for them.

The Israel-Palestine conflict is a throbbing quagmire of complexities. The Balfour Declaration of 1917 set the stage for Jewish immigration to Palestine, which was then under British control. This move was seen as a betrayal by the Arab world, which had been promised independence. Fast forward to 1947, the UN proposed a partition plan, giving separate states to Jews and Arabs. Although accepted by Jewish leaders, it was rejected by Arab leaders and Palestinian Arabs.
The narrative of Israel solely as an aggressor doesn't paint the full picture. Israel has been on the receiving end of attacks as well. For instance, during the 1967 Six-Day War, Israel was surrounded by Arab nations ready to attack. Israel's pre-emptive strike was a response to an existential threat.
