The Israeli-Palestinian\u200d conflict \u2062is one that\u2063 has deep \u2064historical, cultural, \u2064and religious roots, \u200cand reducing \u2064it to\u2064 a binary narrative of good versus evil is both \u2064misleading and harmful.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, \u200cthe \u200cassertion that Israeli settler colonialism \u2064and \u200coccupation are the sole \u2062causes of the ongoing conflict \u200bdisregards the complex history\u200d and \u200cmultiple actors \u200binvolved.
