I think this helps to broaden that picture and make it more vivid with the reality the Palestinians are facing/faced:Displacement
"A visionary leader, an Israeli de Klerk, will one day recognize that the long-term security of Israeli Jews is better served by respecting the rights of Palestinians to life and dignity than by seizing their lands, discriminating against them based on their ethnicity, and violently repressing their resistance." -snip
Reminds me a little of the narrative used in the book World War Z. Israel saw the oncoming zombie apocalypse and proactively absorbed the surrounding Palestinians/Arabs into Israel before sealing itself off. The mindset was that both sides would be better off as allies fighting the hoard together, as opposed to the Palestinians becoming zombie combatants.
Buy yeah in regards to the story overall, you force people into a desperate situation, you can expect them to act desperately and to seek desperate means.
