But just as important as those sparks is a larger reality: Both sides in the conflict are led by people who are relatively uninterested in compromise. Many Israeli and Palestinian leaders have given up on the idea of lasting peace, such as a two-state solution in which Israel and a sovereign Palestine would coexist. They are instead pursuing versions of total victory. For Hamas, the militant group that [rivals](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRihh6IP0THaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYmJjLmNvbS9uZXdzL3dvcmxkLW1pZGRsZS1lYXN0LTEzMzMxNTIyP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTkmZW1jPWVkaXRfbm5fMjAyMTA1MTgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MzEwMzkmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTU4MzQyJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpgnIiZo2AmAghCUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~) Fatah as the dominant Palestinian political party, that means the destruction of Israel. For Benjamin Netanyahu’s Israel, it means a two-class society in which Palestinians are crowded into shrinking geographic areas and lack many basic rights. The result is the worst fighting since 2014. “It would seem as if the current round of violence emerged out of a complex series of events in Jerusalem,” [Vox’s Zack Beauchamp wrote](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRihh6IP0TZaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cudm94LmNvbS8yMjQzMDQ4OC9pc3JhZWwtZ2F6YS13YXItMjAyMS1oYW1hcy1zaGVpa2gtamFycmFoP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTkmZW1jPWVkaXRfbm5fMjAyMTA1MTgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MzEwMzkmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTU4MzQyJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpgnIiZo2AmAghCUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~). “But in reality, these events were merely triggers for escalations made almost inevitable by the way the major parties have chosen to approach the conflict.” I recognize that some readers are deeply versed in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, with strong views about it. And they may bristle at the above description as false equivalence. But I also know that most readers of this newsletter do not follow every turn in the Mideast and often find it bewildering. Today’s newsletter is mostly for them. It will lay out the basic arguments that the two sides are making. When you strip both down to their essence, they help to explain the situation. The Palestinian case One spark for the current fighting is an attempt by Jewish settlers [to evict six Palestinian families](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRihh6IP0T2aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMS8wNS8xMy9wb2RjYXN0cy90aGUtZGFpbHkvaXNyYWVsaS1wYWxlc3Rpbmlhbi1jb25mbGljdC1nYXphLWhhbWFzLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDIxMDUxOCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0zMTAzOSZubD10aGUtbW9ybmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9NTgzNDImdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmCciJmjYCYCCEJSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) from their East Jerusalem homes, where they have lived since the 1950s. The settlers have cited a 19th-century real-estate transaction to establish their ownership. Initial Israeli court rulings upheld the evictions, and the Supreme Court has yet to rule on the case. It is just one example of how Israel has imposed control over places where Palestinians have lived for decades. As The Times’s Patrick Kingsley [has written](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRihh6IP4QFAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjEvMDUvMDcvd29ybGQvbWlkZGxlZWFzdC9ldmljdGlvbnMtamVydXNhbGVtLWlzcmFlbGktcGFsZXN0aW5pYW4tY29uZmxpY3QtcHJvdGVzdC5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTkmZW1jPWVkaXRfbm5fMjAyMTA1MTgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MzEwMzkmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTU4MzQyJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpgnIiZo2AmAghCUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~), “Israeli law allows Jews to reclaim ownership of land they vacated in 1948, but denies Palestinians the right to reclaim the properties they fled from in the same war.” Netanyahu and his allies believe that they can reduce the chances of a future Palestinian state by displacing Palestinians and expanding Jewish settlements. It’s a version of imperialism. More broadly, the East Jerusalem case is an example of how Palestinians must endure [frequent humiliation](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRihh6IP4QEAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lmhydy5vcmcvcmVwb3J0LzIwMjEvMDQvMjcvdGhyZXNob2xkLWNyb3NzZWQvaXNyYWVsaS1hdXRob3JpdGllcy1hbmQtY3JpbWVzLWFwYXJ0aGVpZC1hbmQtcGVyc2VjdXRpb24_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDIxMDUxOCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0zMTAzOSZubD10aGUtbW9ybmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9NTgzNDImdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmCciJmjYCYCCEJSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~). They often cannot travel without enduring checkpoints and roadblocks. They can be denied Israeli citizenship. Their economy suffers from blockades. “The Israeli regime implements laws, practices and state violence designed to cement the supremacy of one group — Jews — over another — Palestinians,” B’Tselem, a human rights group, [has written](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRihh6IP0TaaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYnRzZWxlbS5vcmcvcHVibGljYXRpb25zL2Z1bGx0ZXh0LzIwMjEwMV90aGlzX2lzX2FwYXJ0aGVpZD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD05JmVtYz1lZGl0X25uXzIwMjEwNTE4Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTMxMDM5Jm5sPXRoZS1tb3JuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD01ODM0MiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKYJyImaNgJgIIQlIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA). These inequities fuel Palestinian anger, which occasionally explodes. When it does, Israel’s military strength, financed partly by the U.S., allows it to inflict disproportionate damage. Over the past eight days, more than 200 Palestinians [have died in the fighting](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRihh6IP4QCAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tL2ludGVyYWN0aXZlLzIwMjEvMDUvMTcvd29ybGQvbWlkZGxlZWFzdC9pc3JhZWwtcGFsZXN0aW5lLWdhemEtY29uZmxpY3QtZGVhdGgtdG9sbC5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTkmZW1jPWVkaXRfbm5fMjAyMTA1MTgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MzEwMzkmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTU4MzQyJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpgnIiZo2AmAghCUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~), compared with at least 10 people in Israel. Refaat Alareer, a professor in Gaza, has lost his brother, and his wife, Nusayba, has lost her grandfather, brother, sister and sister’s three children, all in Israeli attacks over recent years, as he explained [in a Times Opinion piece](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRihh6IP0TiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMS8wNS8xMy9vcGluaW9uL2lzcmFlbC1nYXphLXJvY2tldHMtYWlyc3RyaWtlcy5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTkmZW1jPWVkaXRfbm5fMjAyMTA1MTgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MzEwMzkmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTU4MzQyJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpgnIiZo2AmAghCUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~).

Women take cover in a shelter in Ashdod, Israel.Dan Balilty for The New York Times The Israeli case The current conflict did not escalate into something approaching war until shortly after 6 p.m. last Monday. That’s when Hamas launched missile attacks on Jerusalem’s civilians. Hamas, which is backed by Iran, has now fired at least 3,350 missiles toward Israel. Many Israelis ask their critics: What would you do if a terrorist group (which Hamas is, according to the U.S. and European Union) committed to the elimination of your country fired missiles at it day after day, inducing widespread terror? “If it happened to Washington or to New York?” [Netanyahu said on CBS](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRihh6IP4QBAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3LmNic25ld3MuY29tL25ld3MvdHJhbnNjcmlwdC1iZW5qYW1pbi1uZXRhbnlhaHUtaXNyYWVsaS1wcmltZS1taW5pc3Rlci1mYWNlLXRoZS1uYXRpb24tMDUtMTYtMjAyMS8_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDIxMDUxOCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0zMTAzOSZubD10aGUtbW9ybmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9NTgzNDImdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmCciJmjYCYCCEJSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) this weekend. “You know damn well what you would do.” Israel’s answer is both defense and offense. It has built a defense system known as [Iron Dome](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRihh6IP0TfaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMS8wNS8xNi93b3JsZC9taWRkbGVlYXN0L2lyb24tZG9tZS1waWN0dXJlcy5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTkmZW1jPWVkaXRfbm5fMjAyMTA1MTgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MzEwMzkmbmw9dGhlLW1vcm5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTU4MzQyJnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpgnIiZo2AmAghCUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~), which has intercepted many missiles. And Israel has launched bombing attacks on the buildings and [underground tunnels](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRihh6IP4QWAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tL2xpdmUvMjAyMS8wNS8xNy93b3JsZC9pc3JhZWwtZ2F6YS11cGRhdGVzL2EtYmF0dGxlLWJlbG93LWdyb3VuZC10aGUtZmlnaHQtdG8tZGVzdHJveS1oYW1hc3MtdHVubmVsLW5ldHdvcms_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDIxMDUxOCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0zMTAzOSZubD10aGUtbW9ybmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9NTgzNDImdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmCciJmjYCYCCEJSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) where Hamas stores its missiles. The point of the bombings is to degrade the Hamas threat. Israel insists that it tries to minimize Palestinian civilian deaths, going so far as announcing some bombings in advance, even though Hamas fighters [can then escape](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRihh6IP0TVaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMS8wNS8xMy9vcGluaW9uL2dhemEtaGFtYXMtaXNyYWVsLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDIxMDUxOCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0zMTAzOSZubD10aGUtbW9ybmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9NTgzNDImdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmCciJmjYCYCCEJSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~). But Israel says that Hamas deliberately stores missiles near civilians, knowing that the resulting casualties help it win global sympathy. That tactic is consistent with decades of Palestinian political dysfunction. When the United Nations proposed a two-state solution in the 1940s, Arabs rejected it, [David Harris recently wrote](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRihh6IP0TSaHR0cHM6Ly9ibG9ncy50aW1lc29maXNyYWVsLmNvbS9hbi1vcGVuLWxldHRlci10by10cmV2b3Itbm9haC8_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDIxMDUxOCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0zMTAzOSZubD10aGUtbW9ybmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9NTgzNDImdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmCciJmjYCYCCEJSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) in The Times of Israel. When Arab countries controlled Palestinian territories in the 1950s and ’60s, they could have created a nation and did not. When Israel and President Bill Clinton offered a two-state peace deal two decades ago, the Palestinians said no. Even many supporters of Israel who despair over Netanyahu’s leadership believe the larger problem is the Palestinians’ unwillingness [to empower competent political leaders](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRihh6IP0TpaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAxOS8wMy8yMS9vcGluaW9uL3BhbGVzdGluaWFuLXByb3Rlc3RzLWdhemEtc3RyaXAtaGFtYXMuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD05JmVtYz1lZGl0X25uXzIwMjEwNTE4Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTMxMDM5Jm5sPXRoZS1tb3JuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD01ODM0MiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKYJyImaNgJgIIQlIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA), rather than militants like Hamas. Israel can’t make a peace deal, its supporters say, until it has a partner more interested in building a prosperous society than trying to destroy Israel. What now?
