Not my idea. Name a war that ended differently.
WW2. We didn't slaughter everyone in Germany.
WWII ended with one side surrendering. There was quite a lot of slaughter before that happened.
Right but if one side surrenders here they'll lose their land and be destroyed. They aren't similar.
If hamas get Israel the Jewish population is fucked. Look at what's happening now when they crossed the border. That wasn't war it was slaughter of civilians.
If Israel get Gaza the Palestinian population is fucked. Look at the westbank. That is isn't war either.
It's not the same as any war. It's 100 years of religious / racial conflict.
The only end is an agreement or genocide. And 100 years have shown an agreement is unlikely.
They came over the border a killed 1000 civilians. In retaliation Israel has killed 1000 civilians in air strikes. It's not war. It's slaughter.
Its not a war for land, it's a war for cause. Its not Ukraine.
It's been going on for 100 years and it's almost purely over land.
Not this time.
