From working with non-zionist (but still pretty liberal) Israelis the main complication from their point of view was that the loudest, most aggressive voices on each side now dominate the conversation, and it won’t matter who’s in the right or wrong until they’re quieted and the people who want a peaceful resolution on each side can work on one without someone trying to blow them up. See also: Oslo Accords.
From also working with Zionist Israeli children, the main complication for Zionist Israelis is that they’re constantly told that they’re special and more important than other people, but now they’ve grown up they’re not allowed to say that out loud. There were two in particular that got aggy whenever they weren’t given preferential treatment, and told their leader I was antisemitic because I wouldn’t let them skip cleaning when we had tasks they didn’t like.
