Gurl how do you think nations are formed? Nations are artificial constructs that required conquering other peoples and consolidating them into one banner. That requires violence.
Israel's no different. It's delusional to think that process was 100% peaceful, anymore than the consolidation of anywhere else.
I do not operate under the assumption that other nation states are good. The only difference is that Israels formation is more recent so its atrocities are in the living memory of families. Americas campaigns of extermination happened over one hundred of years ago (though systemic discrimination never died). Israels doing it now.
