Israel has all the power in this situation. Hamas achieved nothing good, but blaming Hamas for this is too short-sighted.

You are right, and I agree with you 100%. When their youth is taught that kind of hate from practically the minute the can walk. It just insures the cycle of killing and war. Have you heard of the green Prince? The son of one of the top Hamas leaders who became one of the inner circle of the leadership. After several years watching Hamas lie about, stage attacks and when they bombed their own people. , it was to much for him. He became I spy for the Israeli intelligence Aman and for 10 yrs he risked his life everyday to gather info to pass to the israeli's to save lives on both sides. What an amazing man and what a value and inspiration to.humanity.

Alas, this is wishful thinking my friend. As long as there is money to be made selling weapons, no industrialized nation will lift a finger to halt that massacre. They will feel offended but will not do anything.

The Swiss have tried to have a peace conference in June 2024 about Ukraine but it failed miserably because those that were concerned in the first place were not interested in negotiating.

What is a child's life in comparison to the billions that can be made to kill innocents? How deep do the pockets of those in the weapons' industry have to be until they are full?

Their motto is "If we don't sell the weapons, someone else will do it, so let's be the first ones to sell them"

Peace is good. Americans didn't arm Israel for peace. You still aren't ready to stop arming raging conflicts. Or to vote for anyone who would. You don't have a Green party - no way there's a Jill Stein for y'all. Just war. And war. War and war.

You are right.
