There is no good guy. There is a serious problem. That is that the romans disposessed the jews for their failure to demonstrate minimum loyalty to the laws of the empire. This led to over a millennia of conflict between our peoples due to the incompatibility of our ethics and morals. Beginning in the 19th century in England, europeans sought to correct this ancient problem and restore the jews to their homeland. This project failed or the holocaust wouldn’t have occurred. Postwar, the west tried to solve this problem – in no small part because the west continued to not want the jewish people in the west. However, the people could not cohabitate, war resulted, and the state of israel became a mission of restoration for at least some of the jewish people (zionists). Now, this displaced the palestinians who, as a conquered people, rebelled against their defeat and continue to. This problem is only solved by war, resettlement, and time. Because it is a matter of survival for the Israelis and the jewish people. A fact which will come into greater clarity again “because it’s happening again for the same reason it always does”, and the necessity of a homeland will only increase in urgency and dedication as it happens. Meanwhile a culturally economically, technologically and politically superior half european people are conquering and displacing and repalcing a people inferior by all of thse same measures.
Now I have only written one philosophical piece on this situation that is universal all similar contexts: whatever people and culture builds the first cities, infrastructure, and monuments and states (“original appropriation”) is the territorial owner of that land even if they are dispossessed by others. If you did not improve the land, then you were a user, a parasite, but not a producer of ownership by investment. The temple is enough for eternity. Any claim otherwise is theft. This applies to not only Jerusalem but to Constantinople.
