Clearly, there is an escalation in the conflict between Israel and Palestine, yet the most dangerous development is the Civil War between Israeli Settlers and Palestinians in the Occupied Territory of Palestine, which indicates that Israel lost control in running the country in terms of law and order. Israel enters into a dangerous cycle, namely the far-right Israeli government makes acts against the Palestinians, which increased the military resistance of the Palestinians in response to these acts including harming Israeli Settlers, and in revenge, the Israeli Settlers harming the Palestinians without getting punishment for that, so in revenge, the Palestinians harming Israeli Settlers and soldiers, and here we have a cycle of Civil War between Israeli Settlers and Palestinians. Hence, my prediction is that this Civil War between Israeli Settlers and Palestinians will lead eventually to the end of the Israel occupation of Palestine. Why? Because of the past experience from the decision of Ariel Sharon to withdraw from the Gaza Strip. From the 1970s through to the 1990s, Sharon championed the construction of Israeli settlements in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. However, in 2004-2005, Sharon orchestrated the Israeli unilateral disengagement from the Gaza Strip. Why Sharon did it? Because it became useless to hold Israeli settlements in the middle of occupied hostile territory, the Gaza Strip. Perhaps, bringing carrots and milk with an army helicopter to Israeli settlements there became the symbol of this useless situation, regardless of the casualties to hold and secure these Israeli settlements in the Gaza Strip. we should remember that it took years for Sharon to understand it, but eventually, perhaps, the carrots and milk convinced him that the unilateral disengagement from the Gaza Strip is the only logical way for Israel. Unlikely, that Netanyahu will follow the reasoning of Sharon, but perhaps others will follow it, but this time via unilateral disengagement from West Bank.
