    As much as most people in the Middle East would like that, I don’t think it’s likely to happen. Netanyahu needs this to keep going to stay out of jail and realistically, letting Hamas and Hezbollah reconstitute themselves just gives them time to execute more terrorist attacks, which Israelis have every right to be against.

    I don’t see this war getting cleaned up neatly anytime soon. The only way I can see it happening is if the U.S. steps in to militarily enforce a two-state solution with a DMZ, which they never will (and for good reason; that would be its own clusterfuck).

      They don’t. If they’d just call for an equal and just peace none of this would happen.

      The only way I can see it happening is if the U.S. steps in to militarily enforce a two-state solution with a DMZ,

      Or stop giving Israel weapons. That’d solve the qhole thing.

        That’s ridiculously naive. Hamas has been attacking Israel for a very long time and they’re not going to stop simply because Israel agrees to a ceasefire.

        Or stop giving Israel weapons. That’d solve the qhole thing.

        No, it wouldn’t, because Hamas would just re-arm and commit another Oct. 7th at an opportune point in the future.

          Not longer than Israel has been occupying Gaza. Don’t get your cause and effect mixed up.

          and they’re not going to stop simply because Israel agrees to a ceasefire.

          They literally did. Twice. Israel then proceeded to not uphold their end of the deal.

          No, it wouldn’t, because Hamas would just re-arm and commit another Oct. 7th at an opportune point in the future.

          There is no place for Oct 7th (or any other acts of resistance) in a fair and just peace. Hamas didn’t attack for the lols.

            Hamas is a terrorist group that has made it very clear its objective is the destruction of Israel, stop pretending they’re good guys who will stop once Israel stops.

              Zionists stop by going back to their home countries.

              If hamas chases them to europe, asian, africa, usa., then they’ll be on the same level.

                Gotcha. So you’re literally supporting a terrorist organization. That’s enough of a reason to write you off entirely. Buh-bye.

                  Gotcha. So you’re calling people slurs and writing off anybody who won’t use the same slurs. Genocidal wacko. Buh-bye.

      If Israel’s treatment of its neighbors and its own non-Jewish citizens was fair and just then they wouldn’t need to worry about these kinds of attacks.

        Only people who don’t know their history think that. Arabs in that region have been calling for the destruction of Israel since its inception.

          Because Israel has been an Apartheid state since its inception. Do you know what the Nakba is?

          They’ve been calling for its destruction because of the unfair and unjust treatment Israel has inflicted on the Arab population.

            Israel really is like that spoiled kid in the neighborhood who’s dad is rich and powerful. He sits there and throws rocks and makes fun of everyone and then runs and hides behind dad.

            Now we’re at the point where neighborhood pets have gone missing and dad just thinks it’s odd while he looks for his hunting knife.

            Little Israel would never do anything really bad. He just gets a bit rambunctious. He’s too young to know any better.
