Who is Israel fighting

I am trying to figure out who are they fighting with. I look at a map of the country and is Gaza apart of the country or are they another country. I thought Gaza was just a big city or something

Gaza is a piece of land between Israel and Egypt, where many Palestinians are crowded together. Back when Israel was created after WW II< they also created a Palestinian state, but they have found four--five now--wars between the Palestinians and Israel, Israel has won each and taken control of the Palestinian lands, occupied them. Now Gaza is cut off from both Egypt and Israel and crowded, lots of problems there and unrest, and this is mostly fed up younger people striking back at Israel, who they have been taught to hate. In my opinion, as long as there is not an independent Palestinian state they will fight these wars.

@Docdon23 No they didn't create a Palestinian state. The UN split the region into Isreal and Jordan. Then there are uncivilized savages that even the Arab states reject calling themselves Palestinians (after Philistines)

Are you going to call ISIS a governemt now?

@Docdon23 History and antisemitism would disagree. An independent Palestinian state would still try to destroy Israel.
