    You are only looking at the consequence of oppressing people until they are out of hope and the only path that remains to them seems to be one of violence.

    More violence and more oppression will only cement this and pave the road for the next generation of hopeless militants.

    The solution would be to break this cycle but that would require concessions from the hardline Zionists.

    You too would feel hate and resentment for those who took your father’s land, bombed regularly, put you under a harsh embargo, no jobs prospects, no hope, and, no future.

      🤔 I wonder if it’s even possible to resolve the situation in a just fashion that holds all parties responsible for their actions.

      We’ve tried having third parties intervene but it’s becoming such that humanity as a species is taking sides on the issue.

      That means it might not be possible for justice to be done. There might not be anything anyone can do except evacuate as many innocent civilians as possible and let Hamas and the Israeli government fight it out to the last man.

      EDIT: Addendum to that, we cannot give up on justice just because it seems hopeless, and I do concede it looks pretty fucking hopeless. But we’re humans. We’re the ones who brought justice into this world and we are its only stewards. If we give up on it, all that’ll be left is genocide and abject fucking darkness. We have to find a way.
