Moving the discussion here from the US Politics thread.

This war sadly looks to still keep going for months with the repercussions likely lasting for generations, while the threat of escalation to a full scale regional war comes closer day by day.

Hold on.

What about the previous 3000 years?

Really this history begins here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_diaspora

733 BC, the first time people tried to remove the Jews from their homeland and begun the never ending fight for who actually owned the land.

----------------------

Anyone that thinks this Jewish-Muslim war is only 200 years old, doesn't know what they are talking about.

----------------------

My take is that there are not good guys and bad guys here.  Just arseholes.

Sometimes the Jews have the upperhand, sometimes the Muslims have the upperhand.  Depends on which centry you are looking at.
