  • Israel doesn't know whether using more force on Palestine will prevent attacks from Hamas or provoke them

    History tells us the answer to this. Extremism thrives off violence.

    Exactly. And violence begets violence. Escalation of violence, which is happening and sadly, will continue till many more people die. It's unfathomable the dark period the peoples of Palestine and Israel are entering.

    Also the Americans who have restrained Israelis in previous flare ups, sound ready to step back and let the the IDF attack with no limit

  • Yes but it's not as easy to stop as just saying "ok we won't be violent anymore". The people who want to attack Israel won't all suddenly say "ok we're good with you now". I agree de-escalation and reduction in violence has to be the aim and direction, but this is what I mean about this being complex - the route to doing that isn't simple
