Yes, but other countries have occupied their neighbours without consequences like this. It's difficuly to separate the two, but I think the key point is not the occupation per se, but the fact that the occupation includes the holy sites, thus attracting the extreme religious to the country in the first place, and setting off all sorts of changes in the religion itself as it becomes more and more extreme. I think this development would have probably have taken place in a similar way, even if there had been no Palestinians there in the first place.
