Is it human nature to fight for the underdog or to want to level the playing field? Or would you consider this a learned behavior?

senselessly rooting for the underdog appears to be a common nature with people seeing as how much we tend to support the palestinians to the point of mindless reflex.
What is curious about this particular mindlessness is the way the true dynamic has been inverted through an organized propaganda effort. The real struggle is between the majority Arabs (and to a great extent Muslims) persecuting the small minority of Jews. People did not refer to themselves as "Palestinians" until just a few decades ago, and the very reason for this has to do with creating the perception that those involved in the pesecution are really the victims of such.
It was not a good idea in hindsight to have made Israel.

That's like saying it was a bad idea to give blacks the vote because it pissed off racist whites.
Providing a minority with self determination is not a bad idea simply because the large majority are bigoted against them.
No it's not. Don't be stupid.
My rhetoric would have to be more like yours to achieve that.
Just because you are so monumentally ignorant of the history here, that does not mean such ignorant opinions are "fact".
