I guess if Israel was founded almost a century prior and they had fought a seven year war with only one Arab neighbour, then maybe there would be some equivalencies. Sadly, Israel was the last country in the region carved out by the Colonial Powers and seems to have paid the price from the start.

I agree. The problems stem from Israel being carved out by the Colonial Powers.

The entire area as stands today was created by Colonial Powers. Before that it was the Empire of the day that decided the delineation. If it was done in 1848 we wouldn't be having this conversation but, rather mostly symbolic sharing as in Canada.
