Is it bad that I still don’t fully know what’s going on over there?

It's a very complicated matter that's been going on for centuries, so it's okay to not know, but it would also be best not to form an opinion from comments on the internet.

i mean, really the long and short of it is that 2 militarized groups are pissing at each other and the civilians are the ones primarily getting rained on

It's not all that complicated. The West created Israel after WWII as a place where Jews could live in peace. Somehow the allied forces forgot to check if this was okay with the people who already lived there and their neighbours. Since then Israel have been expanding mainly by occupying their closest neighbour Palestine. This has lead to some friction in the region.

I know that part. I’m not sure what’s going on right now

Yes the West created Israel in a lab and plopped it down right where they wanted to have an excuse to start a fight. Yup. Totally logical.

@dash224 Well, basically Israel has an apartheid regime where Palestinians barely have rights and Israeli settlers occupy more and more land at the cost of Palestinians. When Palestinians opposed this they are met with murder at the hands of the army. Hamas retaliates and Israel strikes back and that's about how it's been for as long as I can remember.
