The violence in the Gaza Strip and West Bank has its roots in the conflicts in West Asia. Before Benjamin Netanyahu became prime minister of Israel, he expressed disdain for Arab nations. Back in 1978, Netanyahu spoke to an American audience. When speaking Netanyahu claims the aspiration for Arab self determination should not be taken into consideration. The reason Arab states would not accept the state of Israel was because it was a settler colonialist nation. Calling it a Jewish state would be incorrect. Israel is a Zionist state. Israel continued to steal Arab land and occupy areas for settlers. The ethnic cleansing, genocide, and induced famine in Gaza in the 21st century demonstrates Israel's true intentions. The domination of West Asia and expanding the Ashkenazi Jewish demographic are objectives of the Likud Party. Israel has not fulfilled its obligations of being peaceful with its Arab neighbors. Even with the peace treaties signed with Egypt and Jordan, anti-Arab racism is policy. It is unlikely that Netanyahu will seek a ceasefire in the Gaza-Israel War or accept a Palestinian state. Based on past interviews, speeches, and talks Benjamin Netanyahu sees Arabs as a problem. The United States in the 1970s aided Israel and continues in the 2020s. The myth of Israel being a victim was expressed by Netanyahu in 1978. As prime minister, the myth was shattered as the world watches Israel engage in human rights violations.
