Evidently, Isra'El must sense that what we Americans did to the native population here is not working as a credible defense for their colonialism>>>>

Evidently defense is working just fine and is very credible

Evidently, the US's history of wanton conquest of a whole continent is not a universal model and can't --and probably won't-- be replicated ad infinitum by other out-migrant peoples.... After all, that's why Hong Kong belongs to China today! If the British had the power and were spurred by the same kind of "Zionist fanaticism", Hong Kong would be a second Israel --ruled by a British General-turned-Governor, with 200 nukes aimed at Beijing. A Judeofascist outpost amidst "barbaric" Confucianism... or better still: the-only-democracy-in-the-Far-East. Fortunately, China's too big a fish to mess with.
