I mean, what else could it be? Stalwart American ally coded white with advanced weaponry attacking mostly defenceless brown neighbors without cause and with the intention of occupation and annexation. Their weaponry is mostly from America. The cherry on top, they would scede some of the land to an American billionaire.
I said that it wasn’t a leap to connect it to Isreal and Palestine. Depending on the details you fixate on though, I’m sure you could connect it to any number of real life historical conflicts. The Isreali Palestine conflict/genocide just has the benefit of being at the forefront of our minds, and I’m sure at least some of the similarities are actually intentional. But it’s not so close as to make it unquestionable that they are one and the same.
The Reconquest of Spain? White Eurpoeans pushing out Middle Easter occupiers, made possible in part by advancements in war technology.
Some of the Crusades? White Europeans annexing a foreign land of Middle Eastern people, using advanced armor and seige weapons.
Colonization of North America? White Europeans annexing a foreign land and displacing it’s much less technologically advanced darker skinned inhabitants?
World War II? Advanced German war technology and annexing their peaceful neighbors?
Russian-Ukraine War? White Russians attempting to annex the lands of their neighboring nation unprovoked for a land grab using what would have been their overwhelming war technology without international help, all while Russia lies and claims to be liberating the people.

But I can’t think of any other conflict it would match.
