That depends on the angle you're viewing this from. Under the agreement, Hezbollah is not permitted to have infrastructure of weapon storages south of the Litani. Their personnel is not permitted to operate south of the Litani. This means that you could argue that most (?) of these incidents which the New Arab counts as violations were, in fact, an enforment of the ceasefire... Preferably this should be done by the Lebanese army or UN troops but apparently Hezbollah agreed that Israel would be allowed to do it themselves.

It's to indicate that 'the killing' is a bit of a vague term in your post

Tldr: religious conflict

We're talking about the peace deal with Hezbollah including them having to keep their fighters far away from the border. I don't know how I'm 'pretending' anything about 'the killing'?

Sure I know there were a lot of friendly fire incidents.

But you said that the IDF "did the vast (capitalized) majority of damage".

Now you seem to have dialed that down quite a bit to "a significant amount of damage" and with the disclaimer "there's no way to know that". So that makes you wonder why you're making these changes when asked to support your previous argument?

Very correct indeed! When you look at history, there's almost no country existing today that was created from friendship

I think they've given them far too little for that. Russians keep gaining territory which will eventually break the Ukrainian morale. If the line doesn't move or moves back a bit that's a whole other perspective.

Do you think the Arab Palestinian leaders believed in respecting the potential partitition??

Indeed, many regions saw uprisings against the Ottomans, with some being genocided and some managing to break off and form their own country. Depending on the period and sultan, jews were actually better off under the Ottomans than they were under other muslim or christian rulers. Relatively speaking of course, because they were always still systemically discriminated against based on their religion. When they saw the Ottoman empire itself turn away from the relative self-rule system for religions towards forced pan-islamism, and the regions that managed to break away towards their own religious fundamentalism (because the factions coming out on top were almost always of such aligment), one could see the writing on the wall and the logical escape path would be to try and form their own country as well.
