Edit: Blocked the author's name, because it's not my tumblr. I didn't expect so many people to misinterpret it and respond in this way.
Edit 2: This is not from the same author, but it's a reply to them. I think it might help clarify the post for those that are confused:
I normally don't worry about usernames on tumblr, but since there've been some really out-of-pocket misconceptions in the thread, I don't want anyone to harass them.
It almost seems like Israel demonstrates the "tyranny of the majority" problem often attributed to democracies.
To service a majority audience, it was all too easy to do stuff like expanding settlements, violently overreact to low-level protest, refuse to negotiate towards a two-state solution, and bottleneck a free-standing Palestinian economy. Of course this marginalizes and radicalizes the minority until it blows up.
Historians can analyze if there was animosity and an occupier mindset immediately from 1948 onwards, when and how much, but it's academic. The situation today is not conducive to constructive resolutions, plus a significant part of the electorate that LIKES it that way.
They probably needed some stronger constitutional guardrails to present this sort of abuse. But again, door open, cows escaped already.
isreal was intended as an ethnostate from the get go. palastinians were second class citizens at best, since the colonisation began. this is bot an issue with constitutions. isreal was always intended to be this way. palastinians where never supposed to have any kind of power or live next to israelis as equals.
