Both sides are assholes. Claiming one asshole gets the land because they are slightly less of an asshole is silly "logic".

It's an ongoing war that started in 1967 if not earlier. Palestine wasn't even a nation back then so it couldn't formally declare war. They just ended having to fight for their stolen land back.
Hamas chooses not to follow Geneva conventions, at least partly because those conventions favor those with the most machines.
And the invasion won't solve anything. Iraq and Afghanistan are a better analogy than Germany.
...Terminator II that could bend all funny when needed. My friend next to me said: "relax, it's only fiction". Where's that bastard now!?
too late
As mentioned, greased with enough money, they will accept political drama risk.
We're talking 1967, not 967.

Palestine wasn't a nation in '67, they couldn't declare war on a flea. It would be like us taking Canada because Mexico attacked us.
A doomer might not be objective, but they'd at least be motivated.
It's a Donzi Scheme.

STFU troll! Do something useful, like going to check to see if Hell is real.

So do pandemics and nuke wars. But knocking down civilization for a while isn't likely to stop it. The fall of the Roman Empire created a "dark zone" in our history, but after a roughly a thousand years we bounced back, largely because most the knowledge the Romans gained didn't go away.
> No sane person stays where their life is in danger, no sane person kills for land.
Neither side is sane, they are fighting Holy Wars in their heads, and believe they will be rewarded in Heaven.
And a good many Palestinians have left for Jordon, Egypt, etc. Those remaining are more determined.
If you are trying find a "good guy" in this mess you came to wrong place.
> The IDF kills in self defense, and does not target civilians
Yet Pal. civilians somehow end up taking the brunt.
Israel stole their land, when they fight back your type acts surprised. "Why don't they just bend over and take it like most Native Americans did?"
Israel ain't no fucking angel. Both sides are big assholes in different ways.
