They were also sort of just... Handed the land they got in 1948. Sure, they partly "conquered" it (mainly through literal terrorism), but then the British were like, "Yeah, you know what, this is too difficult. Here you go."
Slightly different to most tales of conquest, IMHO. Literally a vassal state getting the empire to come in and use superior force to crush their opponents, lol.
And then there's the post-1967 situation, like you mention. They just can't seem to help themselves...
I was being generous because some people get bent out of shape on the issue but, yes, you're correct; even their initial "conquest" was sketchy as fuck. Kind of a reverse-Rhodesia, actually, where Israel had the backing of the Empire.
Gotta love the irony of such a young country telling us how they've been around 2,000 years, too. Oh, also? Palestine? Not a real country, chud. Israel? Infinite years old. How dare you.
