@22Michelle It's the only option. And it needs almost the entire world to come together.

@wishforthenight It needs some countries, other than Israel and the Palestinians, mainly the USA, but really not that many. Terrorism won't just stop if that agreement happens, but people can be persuaded over time that peace is a far better option.
@22Michelle UK, the EU, US, Russia, China, Saudi. Those would be the best countries to press the issue with.

They are absolutely not the same, and the attempt to claim them as the same is often to obscure any criticism of Israel. If you criticize Israel they say, you're criticizing the entire Jewish people, and are thus antisemitic. It's a way to stifle honest critique and discussion and to conflate anti-Zionism with antisemitism (which only waters down the meaning of "antisemitism", something that we probably shouldn't be doing, I would think).

Remember, even in Israel, prior to the HAMAS attack/kidnapping/murder/rapes Israeli military reserves were talking of boycotting service in protest against Netanyahu's right-wing extremist policies. It was only the HAMAS attack that saved his political career, and maybe kept him out of jail.
@ChipmunkErnie It wouldn't surprise me at all if Netanyahu had a hand in Oct 7. It would explain his reluctance to negotiate the release of the remaining hostages, because then the war would be officially over.

@wishforthenight Netenyahu is credited with a role in the creation of Hamas to undermine the PLO.
