    How do you suggest they get back the people currently kidnapped in Gaza? How are they supposed to protect themselves from suicide bombers? Or are these the things you say they should “just take”?

    What you want (Israel just taking the attacks and try to defend themselves) is what people want to abolish who chant “Free Palestine”. Because they want open borders for Palestinians and no retaliation against Hamas which is the situation they had in the past. Which lead to more attacks and deaths.

    I feel a lot of people don’t really know an awful lot about Palestine and how it is ruled. There are several groups in Palestine, especially Gaza, who enforce Sharia law, for example. Women are heavily oppressed, LGBTQ rights are non existent. There were several attacks in Palestine from Palestinians against other Palestinians in a crusade to enforce Islamism.

    They idea that the multiple extremist groups in Palestine will just peacefully sit by while in Israel you have everything they find despicable, on land they see as holy, is more than naive. You are asking for a constant of terror for both sides.

      Running in and shooting everyone is not how you solve hostage situations if you actually want to save the hostages, especially with thousands of civilians in the way. All that does is ensure that the hostages are dead by the time you arrive.

      And again, ofc I have no perfect solution, but genocide is worse than anything anyone can come up with. It doesn’t matter that there are certain groups in Palestine, genocide is not a viable option! It’s pretty ridiculous that I have to repeat that multiple times to be honest.

      You are asking for a constant of terror for both sides.

      I’m asking for them to finally realize that there is no other solution than somehow coming to a peaceful understanding that works for both. But the extremists on both sides will not take this seriously as long as they think there will come a day when they can just mass murder the other side and be done with it. It has to be abundantly clear that it’s either a peaceful solution or no solution at all imo! And afaik the majority on both sides don’t mind the other religion that much and just want this conflict to end.
