From its inception, Israel's relationship with the Palestinian people has been complex and contentious. One critical mistake that Israel made early on was underestimating the strength of Palestinian nationalism and the significance of the Palestinian cause. This miscalculation had far-reaching consequences, contributing to prolonged conflict and hindering efforts for peace in the region.

To grasp the gravity of Israel's misstep in underestimating Palestinian nationalism, it's imperative to delve into the historical backdrop against which Israel emerged.

The Nakba was not merely a historical event but a defining moment that shaped Palestinian identity and fueled the emergence of Palestinian nationalism. As Palestinians grappled with the trauma of displacement, a fervent desire for self-determination and reclaiming their homeland took root. The Nakba became a rallying cry
