I'm genuinely curious, have you seen Louis Theroux's The Settlers?
I'm not trying to debate the subject with you or use it as any form of argument, but I would be intrigued to know how it comes across to someone with your view points.
Why are you not trying to debate me? Do debate.
Anyways I have not seen it, but have read about it now after your question.
I assume it's about the life of the Arabs in the West Bank and the conflicts with the Jews living there.
Asking my view on it is obviously a big question and I can go on for hours with my answer obviously.
I'll try to make it intuitive and short.
With regards to the entire region of Israel, you got to understand the history and the Unbelievable fact that not only have the Jews been kicked out by the Roman conquerors and later the Arab conquerors, but that for more than a thousand years it's been basically a wasteland.
Even the Arabs that have lived here for 500+ have always been the citizens of the bigger empire, be it the Byzantine, the Mamlukian or the Ottoman, and have traveled around the empire, and had no special feelings to the land of Israel.
You can check the historical censuses, there was almost no rise in population in Israel from around the 5th/6th century up to the 20th century, which is mind boggling.
And add to that, that for almost 2000 years of exile, there was only 1 new city established by the Arabs, which is Ramla.
All of the cities in Israel, and including the West Bank, were ancient Jewish cities, It's not a coincide that Jesus was a citizen of Beth-Lehem, which was a Jewish city that is now almost only Arab.
Also you can check out various authors such as Mark Twain who have traveled the land in the 19th century and have reported that it is a wasteland.
So the Arabs could not care less about Israel for 1500~ years, and regularly migrated to economically decent regions, and then when Zionism started in the early 20th century, and the economy started to bloom thanks to the Jewish immigrants, then many Arabs migrated to the region as well.
Putting all that aside, in 1947 the UN suggested that the land be split in half and 2 states would be established, Jews agreed, even though it is the same land that the Jews established 2000 years ago, and were kicked out of, and the Arabs rejected it.
Had they accepted, this whole conflict could have been avoided.
What ensued was an all out war, as it is the norm with the Muslim culture around these places, in order to exterminate all Jews from the land.
Jews won and established a state, and did not take over Judea and Samaria (the West Bank).
From 48 to 67 the Arabs had 20 years to establish a state of their own in Judea and Samaria, I'll let you have 3 guesses what they did with that time.
The correct answer is they were plotting to kill Jews.
After several wars, Israel had decided to occupy Judea and Samaria as otherwise it would have been a major security risk since Israel is only several miles wide without Judea and Samaria in some points.
So in order to protect the state and the people, Judea and Samaria was occupied, and terror organizations have been depressed by the military.
The settlers there have a right to be there, it's a land like any other.
They should obviously not go into already habitant land where people live and kick them out, but most of the land is vacant and I see no reason why they can't be there and be possible citizens of a future Arab state there, just like there are 20% Arabs in Israel.
With regards to the situation, Israel is prosecuting settlers who are harassing Arab citizens, and we're talking cutting down trees here. Whilst the Palestinian Authority is paying monthly wages to the families of Arabs who have killed Jewish citizens in terror attacks. The wage is higher if there were many casualties.
In broader terms, I think that the Arabs in Israel post 1948 had bad luck, tragic luck even, as they were accustomed to being citizens of an empire for over 1000 years, and the culture surrounded the tribe, the family, and the empire.
There was no nation in the culture. An Arab from Hebron could not care less about an Arab in Jerusalem other than they were both citizens of the Ottoman Empire and that the Empire had rule of law.
Fast forward to post WW1 and Britain was the Government, and Arabs were asked to organize as a nation and to have a Political body represent them, and they were never a nation, they were always big tribes under an empire, so they could not organize.
So what ensued since then is that other Muslim powers with aspirations to restore the Muslim Empire in the region, such as Iran, Saudi, Egypt, back in the day you had Sadam Hussein and such, they were always in the background pouring gasoline on the situation and feeding the Arabs in the region propaganda, supporting extremist terror organizations to take over politically, all in the goal of destroying the Jewish state, and with absolutely no second thought about compromising the Arabs in Israel in the process.
So the Arabs, who again have no shared nation conscious, always fell for the propaganda and have failed to establish proper political force which isn't terror minded, have again and again been left the victims of the situation, and the Jews as well.
Moving forward I think that there is no solution other than paying huge compensations in the sum of millions for every Arab family that would like to migrate out of the place, Israel should arrange a house and a citizenship for them elsewhere to start their life out, this could be in Asia, Africa, South America, or wherever.
If they can't organize themselves as a nation then they can be consumed in a different state.
