… You don’t understand this conflict at all, do you? Bibi’s a bastard, but if eligible-to-vote Arab citizens of Israel showed up to vote against the shitheels anywhere near as well as the shitbag American Christian settler contingent, his party could not have formed a government and, since he is currently charged with corruption, his competitor parties wouldn’t have fallen in line to give him a joint government.

I don't really see how participating in electoral democracy fixes the problem of settler conquest. The state has lost all legitimacy in a lot of peoples eyes and I don't blame them for not wanting any part of it.

I don't blame people for resisting occupation.
