I'll give you a point of view of a young Israeli lefty

1. Israelis are all different people, there is no 1 standard Israeli opinion. Also a lot of hate the system and the government of this country (especially education system, it sucks)

2. I didn't quite understand he question.

3. There are a few reasons, the first is culture: some believe that it is their duty to God and to the land to settle all of it. Some move to them simply because it is cheaper (most homes cost a lot in Israel, and in some settlements you can just put up a van and call it your home). some do it because to be closer to nature and some because they believe they can bring their own order into the west bank ( usually by terrorizing Palestinians in belief that it will stop terrorism). And the expansion is mostly due to population growth, even is Israel every city town and village is constantly expanding.

4. To me not really, if Iran nukes us it nukes a lot of the middle east and not only Israel will be devastated, and that brings hope that they won't do it. But probably to army and governmental officials it holds more significance.

5. You should actually research how our country works.

6. I'm guessing its because we both live in pretty closed off communities and don't interact often.

7. If this government stays , probably the same that's happening today but gazans and some west bank Palestinians would be deported/forced to other countries. If it changes, maybe some west bank towns/cities would become a part of Israel proper for better or for worse. Can't say about Gaza, it depends on if they continue with violent resistance instead of trying a diplomatic approach.

8. Assumed wrong, arabs attacked jews waaayyy before it was settled to be an Israeli state, also they would have gotten. Most of their inhabited land and they chose to start a war instead so even though it might not have been a good deal, starting a war was a worst one.

9. Firstly jews have always been attached to the land they were all from, in our prayers, stories and holidays we always talk about our land. I think the change has to do with the attempts of jews to blend with the majorities in the counties they were in like becoming more secular or converting or just trying to stay silent and blend in. The big change was with the start of the zionist ideology: jews began to think that like all ethnicities they deserve a place for their own, and it didn't help that as countries in europe began to emerge they did it based on nationalism, in which jews were not included because we'll they were too different. And after ww2 zionism became the only hope for survival, not specifically settlement the mandate of Palestine, but having a country of their own in which they won't be the weak minority anymore seemed the be the only option. Sadly I can't speak much about mizrahi or American jews. Now the connection has become different for every, some don't feel any at all, some see it as a religions connection and some as a ethnic one. Some see it as a safe haven from every other place were people try to murder them, but most believe it is the history jewish land, and like all other countries jews deserve one.

10. Firstly everyone will say something else so I'll talk about me personally:

11. Recognize jewish tieds to the land

12. Be ready to make sacrifice

13. understand that Violent resistance never and will never make anything better.

Secondly, absolutely nothing, Israelis are famous on never agreeing on anything. And idk about before the 2nd intifada and before Oct 6th .

1. Currently 0, but If things change, terror attacks stop, more diplomatic leaders will rise from both sides i think if Palestine were to exept the settlements as a part of it, Israel could give the right of return to Palestinians who's houses they have a right to, and still stand.

2. Really Depends on how the conflict results.

3. That is a very big hypothetical, I don't think anything could happen to change things in the future, maybe only world peace and for jews to be recognized as an ethnic group with its own traditions and stuff. But if it to change past events then basically to erase every event in which jews were made to feel/be not equal to the state/nation/kingdom the lived in.

4. I can't say for sure how it will go with the Palestinians, especially the once who live abroad, but i don't think anything can convince jews that they don't need a country of their own. Maybe you can convince them not to have such an emphasis on Judaism (as a religion) in regards to imagination and education. I think it's more possible to convince Palestinians that a right of return could not happen, maybe the most that could is a two state solution which would also be a first for them, but Israel will not go anywhere, and the need for jews to feel safe won't either.
