    They went aggressive defense, after the effects of WW2. They built an impressive machine to both keep themselves safe (by all means necessary) and hunt down Nazis who fled into hiding.

    Unfortunately, they ran out of targets, on the nazi front, and really pissed off their neighbours. Rather than risk de-escalating, they’ve gone all-in.

    The intergenerational changeover, and the political games that entailed lead to the current situation.

    Stare too long into the abyss, and the abyss will stare back into you.

      The trick is to wait until the abyss stares back, and to smile at it.

      EDIT: My bad, I thought this was from another Israel Palestine thread I roped myself into.

      I feel bad for everyone involved though.
