78. Your analogy doesn't hold
The Native Americans didn't organize massacres of the Europeans. (But the Palestinians did organize massacres of the Jews)

The Native Americans didn't refuse peaceful coexistance (But the Palestinians did)

The Native Americans DID have their land invaded by an overwhelming military of multiple nations - gee, so did the Israelis

So, if you really DO want to use that lame analogy, perhaps you should look at who were the aggressors, who were attacked, who offered peace, who insisted on ethnic purity. It should doesn't fit your model.
