Assalamualaikum..
Palestine and Israel are two sides that are on war and constant fights for survival and power in the West Bank. The fights between them had cost a large number of lives, mainly to the Palestinian side. As a Muslim, I am obliged to do care for my brothers in region, as they had claimed to be oppressed by the zionist for decades, and is years ahead before it becomes a member of the Gold Jubilee (for being 100 years of age).
Is it a humanity issue?
What will you feel if you have been told to clear your houses by strangers, forcefully? With no valid reasons, you are told to move out of your own land so that the strangers can take over the inherited property of yours? What will you do when those strangers use brute force in order to stop you from going out to work, gaining money in order to buy foods for your families? How are you going to react when these brutal strangers do not allow your children to go to their schools to gain knowledge for their future? What will you feel when you are not allowed to visit your parents who reside on the other side of the land, which lays the territory controlled by these unknown 'punks'?
If not fight back for what have been taken from you, then you will either stay in fear of another brutality of the strangers and also in fear of your own safety and of your family members. If you decided to counteract their brutality, then a lot more arises. Your sons, who fights for their rights to study in schools, and also for their land that had been unlawfully confiscated, will be arrested for weeks, months and may take as long as years before they return home. The worst, only their lifeless scarred body returns. What will you do? What will you tell your other sons/daughters? What will be your next actions? Will you be able to remain silent and do nothing? These militia had been oppressing you, not for days, but for years, decades and still counting.
What will you do?
But, isn't it a long battle of religious sects?
Oh, this had been the main issue here. It is a battle between Jews, Christians and Muslims. Is it? These three religion believes that Palestine is a sacred place. Each faith system were prepared to conquer the area and strengthen it with their authority.
The Jews believes that the area are part of the Crystal Palace (I'm not sure whether this is right or wrong) of the prophet Solomon (as prophet Sulaiman in Arabic). They are trying to build the castle back and also continue on their idea of being the supreme race in the world.
The Christians believed that BaitulMaqdis is the place whereby Jesus (as prophet Isa in Arabic) was born. It is therefore, important for them to take control of the region because they wanted to preserve the historic venue of their faith.
Muslims, whereas believe that Palestine is sacred because in BaitulMaqdis, the third most important Masjid is located, namely Masjidil-Aqsa. This masjid is mentioned in the alQuran, and it was also the venue involved in the 'Isra & Mikraj'. Again, that is one of the reason why the Muslims wanted to control the area.
I am sure that, the above reasons are not the only reasons to why the conflicts arises. It may be caused by a lot more issues. The question here is, will it be an end to the issue in Palestine if each of the religious wanted to control the area on their own, without any inteference from others.

MY STANDS
I took it as a religious issue more than humanity problems. The clashes arises only after the great Ottoman Empire (Islamic Caliphate of Uthmaniyyah) stumbled upon the westernisation move by mustafa kamal attaturk. It is therefore, important for me to fight and do the most I can to help the Palestinian brothers in their war against enemies of Islam.
