So I think I have a basic grip on this conflict, the modern times at least, it’s basically a back and fro attacks of Israel and Palestine military, about who the territory of Gaza Strip and West Bank.

But who the most legitimate claim to those lands? The region is called Palestine, and Israeli only settled there after the second world war after the land was “assigned” to them. So am I right to presume that Palestinians are the native people of this land, and the State of Israel is just trying to get rid of them?

    Except maybe the Khoi-San of the Kalahari desert in southern Africa. For whatever reason nobody is talking about putting them in charge.

    Sadly, most of the population here and worldwide either doesn’t understand this take or disagrees with it, so it kind of is hot.
