The crisis in the middle east

Hello
So unless you have been living under a rock then you must have heard about the crisis in the middle east. What you may not know is that it began 200 years ago. It began in the 1800's when the Jewish people wanted to establish a holy land in the Palestine, which is in the North-East of Asia

and since then the middle east has been in turmoil. However the common problem is that people just want to have control and not let anyone else have it. When the Jewish people wanted to establish a holy land in Palestine, the Europeans didn't think that that was right and instead of letting people do what they wanted they made a huge deal out of it and started a 200 year long battle for control. When the Jewish people did reach Palestine and escaped the clutches of the Europeans, the British who then occupied Palestine wanted to again control the Jewish people and made it again difficult. The situation remained vastly unchanged until the first world war when the Arab people wanted a land in Palestine and the decision of the big countrys at the time was to carve up the territory occupied by the Jewish and the Arab and to mix it up and try to make everyone happy. However they're benevolence or fake benevolence was met with harsh and severe protest that has continued till today. The UN

decided to group the Jewish people and the Arab into separate parts however the Jewish people got a bigger slice of the pie and the Arab people did not like it or agree. What I have to ask after all this is it right for large and powerful country's to control the little guys, and in my opinion no I heartily say no. When larger superpowers step in they rarely solve the dispute without a large amount of violence or with a happy outcome for all. However they do solve them quickly and it tends to be decently equal whereas when people solve they're own problems one side tends to get the better end of the stick. The question I have to ask is does might make right or should we leave the decision to the little guys. In my opinion no might dosent make right, just because you can decide for everyone cause they are afraid to oppose you dosent mean that it should happen.
