Cuz I'm German and I know that it took decades of massive occupation and heavy, active deprogramming, for the Allies to civilize the Germans. Had to literally breed and propagandize the war out of them, which took nearly three generations.
Palestinians are even more warlike and resentful, and they have no memories of a high, advanced, peaceful civilization to fall back on, unlike the Germans. That's something that is fundamentally different between them and their neighbors. They're more like the Afghans or the Somalians.
Also, it's a region completely overrun by angry young men and women who breed like rabbits. That low of a median age, and that high of a fertility, means perpetual war. Either at home or abroad. I don't think there are any historical examples of such a demographic being peaceful.
But is it the palestinians turning always against israel or the opposite? I mean, in Israel women join the army, they have a big percentage of gdp for the army etc. All of this is just to defend themselves from the aggresive palestinians? Sounds like a joke, no?
Not really. Look how much money NATO burned fighting goat herders with Kalishnikovs.
If you don't want your soldiers to die, but you're fighting a ground war amidst civilian non-combatants in a foreign country, with journalists live-filming everything you do, war is mind-numbingly expensive.
The journalist part is filming what their narrative servs mostly. But even then there are facts that are hard to ignore
Yes, absolutely. And wartime journalism is extremely important. But it still makes the war more expensive.
