>>17790778>Why should the Palestinians accept the existence of an Israeli state if they explicitly have plans on taking the rest of the territory at some future point?Because Israel is stronger than them and each time they fight back it leads to them getting weaker and ending up in an even worse position than before. If they want to defeat Israel they need to wait until Israel is at its weakest, and October 7th was not that moment.
>If you want to imitate the Europeans in colonizing an indigenous people then be prepared for constant struggle. That's why they're slowly settling the West Bank and obliterating Gaza, it's everyone else who is seething about Israel's actions. They've already won.
>Israel will never be the heart of an empire because the Israelis don't have what it takes to govern one.Other than schizos who dream of 'Greater Israel' they've never had the intentions of becoming an empire, only becoming the sole rulers of Palestine which they believe is their rightful lands, and they've been successful at this goal.
