... and that void is filled by force of arms ... oh yes, you see i do understand this stuff, clearly Ability to administer will give you de jure sovereignty, but that is meaningless absent ability to prevail, which gives you the de facto Once upon a time all the little indigenous tribes were alone, unable to communicate with each other, not even aware of each other, conscious only of their own predicament under their own conquerors du jour .... this is no longer the case, and it's no unrelated coincidence that sensibilities regarding treatment of indigenous have evolved considerably during the same period that communications and transport have shrunken distance and broken down informational walls .... Chivington would be arrested immediately today, for what he did, and there would be no Frank Baum lauding him in the newspapers So times do change, and the nature and origins of your 'defensive alliances' there is likely to change as well .... the manner in which the indigenous of Palestine are treated will forever colour the state of Israel ... there have been images of Zion showing it as Shining City on a Hill, not a forbidding grim fortress, and for life to imitate art in this regard there will have to be a complete re-think for all parties involved The right of return for foreign jews but not for native muslims, that would be my suggestion for your own first re-think, as a zionist partisan ... imagine your own family discriminated against, in this situation, hmmm
