I'm not comparing the politics, just the mindset
I'm just trying to say that there are many groups both now and in the past who have based their nationalist zeitgeist on defeats (real and/or imagined) rather than on triumphs. That is what the Palestinians are doing and they're not alone. Whether or not that is a good idea for them is another debate entirely (I think it is not).
