This research uses a comparative case study approach to explore the Israeli-Palestinian and Ukrainian-Russian conflicts within the framework of the Security Dilemma.It employs primary and secondary sources.The study analyzes each conflict individually while allowing for meaningful comparisons between them to identify patterns in each case.The research challenges the traditional dichotomy between offensive and defensive realism by proposing that state behavior is influenced by an interplay between both paradigms based on strategic calculations.States may engage in offensive behavior when advantageous or adopt defensive strategies out of necessity.This paper offers insights into these dynamics, thereby generating new perspectives in political science debates
