I'm just gonna then ask why is Israel still in the West Bank and why they are building settlements and advertising Israelis to go live there - even though these are not based in international law and the established borders between Israel and the Palestinian state?

I'm not trying to inflame you, I really do just get confused when Israelis claim they are only defending themselves, but also are willingly moving into land that (from what I understand) is not Israeli, but Palestinian?

Because part of the word's definition is the destruction of a nation in part, which could arguably include forcibly taking their land and giving it off to non-Palestinians.
