It's not Palestinian Arabs. It's non-Israeli Palestinian Muslims.
Non-Muslim Palestinians, be they Jews or Christians, have little to no problem with Israel. They certainly don't want to live in a Muslim Palestinian state.
Non-Muslim Arabs, same as above, but they fled their Arab country of origin for their lives. That is, they're refugees per the UNHCR definition. The last thing they want is to go back.
Israeli Palestinian Muslims, they're less than delighted to live in a Jewish country, but they appreciate the stability. They have no problem with Jordan or the Hashemite monarchy
And non-Israeli Palestinian Muslims have a problem with _Jordan_, never mind the existence of Jordan. They have a problem with the Hashemite monarchy for Jordan not being at war with Israel. Not the same thing.

>__One of Switzerland’s largest traditional sheep migrations took place on mountain trails in canton Graubünden on Saturday.__
>High above Fläsch in the Rhine Valley, 1,400 sheep were moved from Guschasattel, beneath the 2,560-metre-high Falknis, to the Fläschertal valley.
>The animals will graze in the remote Fläschertal until they are brought down from the alp in October. The spectacular migration includes narrow paths along steep mountain flanks at an altitude of over 2,000 metres. This event has a long-standing tradition, having taken place for decades.
>The enormous herd set off at 6am on Saturday morning. Just over an hour later, the first animals had reached the high Fläschertal valley. The older sheep, although slower, knew the way and made the journey on their own. They covered a distance of around ten kilometres. According to the shepherd, all the sheep completed the hike safely

> Putin thought he had the second strongest army in the world and that Ukrainians would welcome him with open arms en masse.
I have a different take. Considering Russian victories in Abkhazia and South Ossetia (and Crimea in 2014), he had nothing but confirmation that his [salami tactics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salami_slicing_tactics) are working well. However, it's taking too long to capture small pieces of territory and he's not a young man. He's 71 in a country where average life expectancy is 69.5. He had pressures to do something great for the party he's heading (which explicitly wants reunification with the old Republics). Ukraine is the most valuable Republic considering not only its access to Southern naval bases that are much closer to the ocean but Ukrainian grain exports. Those exports, when combined with Russia's, would give him more than half of the worlds supply where he could now raise prices and diversify away from oil which has been giving Russia headaches.
So, he continued the same approach and tried to take Luhansk and Donetsk. Frankly, if he just did that, there was a good chance he'd keep those territories but he wanted the entire country or - I bet - he wanted all Ukrainian territory East of the Dnieper river. It would give him all those territories and it would also get the higher GDP/grain producing divisions in Ukraine (2 out of 3 highest regions). He thought he could invade everywhere, threaten Kyiv to surrender while trying to capture as much South-, Central-, and North-Eastern territories. He obviously failed and bit off more than he could chew. Now he's screwed without any way out so he's trying to do his best to leave Ukraine but still fall back to the original plan: keep Crimea *and* Luhansk and Donetsk.
This is why the recent invasion of Russia is quite a bold move. They're basically trying to capture territory - which shouldn't be too difficult considering lack of serious military bases there and how many troops are simply elsewhere. Ukrainians are then going to either trade that territory for lost Ukrainian territory and/or it'll weak Russian military positions in Ukraine when those troops are sent back to Russia to recapture it. Either way, Ukraine is in a better position.

And in doing so reduce the Russianification of those Eastern regions, making the indigenous populations more dominant.

I believe some of it is related to having intelligence fed to them by NATO. Plus the training received and semi-superior equipment (in some units). But Russia itself has a terrible command system, virtually zero training and discipline, and a conscripted army that struggles to even eat.
It’s also much easier logistically to support defensive operations in your own country that is relatively small in comparison to Russia trying to provide support by convoy and train to their troops.
Ukraine has still struggled heavily to provide good support and logistics to front line units. But the men and women fighting have done miraculously well with little to no support or supplies at times.

Yeah I was thinking about the resupply thing as well. These cross boarder missions, you can always retreat back to your own supply lines. At least theoretically, they are close.
But it also might be possible to “live off the land” so to speak. There should always be a village or a town close enough to sack and resupply your food/water there.
Ammo, on the other hand, I’m not sure how to keep feeding these troops ammo.

That's only applicable in this conflict, because there's not sufficient stealth aircraft to perform SEAD / DEAD missions for either side to have aerial superiority.
If Russia was fighting NATO, instead of just Ukraine, the war never reaches the WW1 Trench Warfare stage. NATO airstrikes would keep the conflict dynamic, and punish any attempt at static defenses.

Not much, but it makes ending the war with current borders no longer entirely in Russia's favour, and therefore makes Russia much less likely to accept it and therefore makes it less likely for Ukraine to be forced to accept such terms by their western supporters.
