In relation to the article you hyperlinked: It makes no reference to the fact that the beginning of the Jews mass return to Palestine to reconstitute the Jewish National Home began after World War 1 with the liberation of large of areas of land from 400 years of rule by the Ottoman Empire. The Principal Allied Powers agreed in 1920 to 99% of this land being allocated for Arab self-determination and 1% - Palestine - for Jewish self-determination. The Arabs didn't accept that subdivision. Even that was whittled down in 1922 when 78% of that 1% was set aside for Arab self determination in Transjordan. Arab Jew-hatred for the last 100 years trying to gain that 22% of 1% has caused Jews and Arabs losses of hundreds of thousands of lives in futile wars waged by the Arabs.
Peace Treaties signed by Israel with Egypt (1979) and Jordan (1993) and the 2020 Abraham Accords offered some hope this Arab grab for the remaining 22% of 1% they did not get in 1922 would be resolved. The October 7 massacre in Israel and the absence of any response from the Arab world expressing abhorrence at what occurred is a setback - as is the failure of the United Nations and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation to root out out the vile perpetrators now hiding in a network of tunnels built in the last 15 years under Gaza's residential and commercial buildings, mosques, schools and hospitals.
Your claim: "Nearly ten years later the on the ground results of the expansive project are muchly bigger and firmly entrenched" is laughable. This "expansive project" is taking part in Judea and Samaria (West Bank) - an area of land one eleventh the size of Tasmania - which the Jews were encouraged to settle for the purposes of reconstituting the Jewish National Home under article 6 of the League of Nations Mandate for Palestine and article 80 of the United Nations Charter.
Is one Jewish State in this world existing among 57 Islamic States (22 Arab) too much for you to accept?
