    Let’s see what they propose. Or you for that matter?

    If Al qaeda was based in Canada and constantly attacking New York what would the U.S. have done post 9/11? Just leave them alone?

    The truth is there no good option here. Elimination of Hamas is the only option and it will be bloody for both sides, partially due to Hamas use of Palestinian citizens as human shields. Hopefully after Hamas is removed from power Palestinians can elect leaders who don’t call for the complete annihilation of Israel and Israelis can elect moderates who are open to negotiations as well.

    Unless you are among those who think Israel should be dissolved in which case you are not actually interested in a peaceful solution for all sides.

      Even if “eliminate Hamas” is the response, forcing the entire population out and bombing the whole fucking place is not the only way.

      Doubly so, because if you kill and/or displace hundreds of thousands of civilians, how many of those do you think will remain civilians, and how many will subsequently be bolstering the numbers of Hamas?

        What is the other option here other than Israel surrendering to Hamas?
