What an insane approach to conflict. "x is an occupier, they're in the wrong" is a formula for never-ending low level conflict - any time a side wins they're in the wrong for winning and everyone should support the other side.

No one said that. Winning a conflict and occupying a territory doesn't give you perpetual rights to that territory. The US occupied Iraq and Afghanistan and they never denied those countries statehood

>Winning a conflict and occupying a territory doesn't give you perpetual rights to that territory That's exactly what it does if you don't want perpetual war.

Perpetual occupation produces perpetual conflict. The US pulled out of Afghanistan and Iraq

No, the US followed exactly you proscribe - it didn't choose to annex territory and so the result was utterly predictable. Appoint an American military governor over those provinces and give him the task of producing order and tax revenue and you get entirely different results.
