That's more of a path to accepting defeat and domination. This entire situation was premeditated and now there plently of documentation to prove that, including many writing from the fathers of Zionism. The only reason why "Israel" isn't going anywhere fast is due to Western support (mainly US now). No people, ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, would accept brutal domination, humiliation, and forced removal from their ancestral homeland. I don't see any reason why any person with the slightest shred of morality (who doesn't have double standards), compassion, and respect for their fellow man should just "accept it" now because it's status quo . It's this kind of attitude and cowardly submission to power that will NEVER allow peace EVER, and it makes me sick. I know for a fact that no one in the same circumstances would act any differently or spout this kind of defeatist pacifist bullshit. Why should an illegitimately created state, consiously premeditated brutal plan of theft and domination, be respected or acknowledged as legitimate? Or do you only value fundamental principles, ethics, and morality (intelligible to anybody) when they not an inconvenience for you?

do you seriously want more war? coz thats the only thing hamas is going to achieve here. dont know about you, but more palestinian deaths doesnt please me very much. |
No, I don't. At the same time, I don't want to see the gradual annihilation of a people eigther. Neigther do I want to see the artificial creation of another Western supported state through the use of brutal domination and coercion. If we can't even rise to the most basic level of morality, all this talk about peace is nothing more than hot air. Looks like history hasn't taught us anything.
Good day sir, and have fun supporting tyranny.
EDIT: You cannot expect peace from an utter disregard for others and denial of their basic human rights. Simoultaneously, you can't expect acts of extreme indiscriminatory brutal violence to not occur from atleast some of a population that's been suject to such monstrous and humiliating domination and brutality.
