Palestine is considered one of the most tense areas of the world due to what many international human rights organizations consider Israeli violations against Palestinian civilians, as well as settlement operations that aggravate the situation, in addition to racial treatment such as the Israeli separation wall that it established in the West Bank, which many considered racist.
