Most of what I looked into was trying to find the source of it all, so I didn't look that much into the more modern history, but you're absolutely right. The British and Zionists made a deal to grow the Jewish population in the region to grow British influence. Israel as a state isn't even a hundred years old I think.

It is disgusting how between the Balfour Declaration and present the narrative has dehumanized Palestinians and stripped them of their cultural identity -- which is genocide through and through. What's worse is that I think they've been kicked down by everyone. In the first Arab Israeli War, the Arab nations occupied Palestine during the war. When they lost, the land was either ceded to or taken by Israel. Now, after decades of using the Palestinians, the neighboring Arab nations won't take Palestinian refugees. Some have accepted Israel.

And then there's Hamas, who effectively occupies part of the region and launches attacks from civilian areas. Once again, using Palestinians to their own ends. They have their stockpiles of water and medicine and food, and they aren't sharing. They anticipated Israel collectively punishing (genociding) all of Palestine in response to their attacks. The radicals are also part of why the neighboring countries aren't taking in Palestinians. When they did in the past, radicals like Hamas took advantage of it to cause civil strife and conflict. It's all such a mess. Everyone's using Palestinians for their own ends while Israel continues their genocide.

At this point, I think Israel has been around long enough that you'd just be punishing children for the sins of their fathers if the state was to be dissolved. By no means though does that mean the borders should stay the same. It should return to the original demarcation, and a state of Palestine, or perhaps Nakba, should be established next to them. Or maybe Israel can treat everyone within their borders and colonies as citizens with equal rights. I know neither are realistic. The latter is impossible with the IDF and conservative government. The former is impossible because of Hamas. They refuse a two state solution, and reiterated the other day that they would continue to do attacks like the first one until everyone there was dead.

Feel free to correct me if anything I've said is wrong, like I said I looked into the early history a lot more than the recent. I don't know what can be done. You have the IDF hellbent on bombing all of Gaza, and you have Hamas hellbent on killing everyone in Israel.
