The zionist sure are trying, though, aren't they? How many times have we heard the term "mow the lawn"? Where do you suppose that's all coming from? It might not be the universal "Israeli" or Jewish desire, but it's certainly the overwhelming one and watching the indiscriminate killing in front of our eyes, how could you possibly think there is potential for an amicable solution? It's becoming more evident that it's an impossibility, therefore it will never happen since one side will have to give up more than the other and neither are willing to do so. We really ALL have to come to term with that.

Of course they are trying to fight will all the resources at their disposal, just as the Palestinians are doing as well. That is the very nature of war. My view that a solution is of course possible has no assumption that it needs to be amicable or even what either side could regard as "fair". It can only be according to the rules of international geopolitics, which would dictate that each side build up their negotiating position as best as possible before coming to the terms at the negotiating table, whatever they might be able to achieve.

How is that clear failure?

Palestinians are still being starved to death, gathered in tiny areas and killed indiscriminately with the terrorist state hell bent on continuing the slaughter of the people of Gaza.

What you are describing is the cost in suffering that the Palestinians are enduring with great fortitude and strength of character. But look at their persistence, and the costs that are adding up for the Israelis, in terms of men, material, economic losses and political ramifications, internally, and internationally. They certainly cannot keep it up in the manner they are going presently. Clearly.

Israel has been heavily striking southern Lebanon over the past two days.

So far the West has done a great job in supporting them through this genocide and protecting them in the UN.

Yes, we know what these colonizers have done for monetary gain.

Geopolitical interests span over economic aspects, of course, no matter what label you may prefer to apply to any side. The same principles apply to everyone. Equally.

The child killers are given top jobs on their return to UK as reward for their servces to the Nazis.

Remember this when it is your turn:-"That is the very nature of war."
