Perhaps we should hope that the next species to rule the earth will find a less contentious way forward.
Hasn't worked in the last 4 billions years. I see no reason why that should change.
Also, when it comes to "innocents," there's a lot of hair-pulling about all the innocents in Gaza. No doubt, there are innocents suffering there, but, they, until now, at least, whole heartedly supported Hamas.
Does a Palestinian born in Gaza have a meaningful choice of tribe?

Homogenizing a people does make it easier to do what the Hamas terrorists did - or what Israel with do to the Palestinians or what the Saudi terrorists did on 9/11 - though our nation seemed to have no problem seeing its way to isolating the Saudi terrorists from the rest of that country.

And right now we are in the fog of things. It has been said and seems credible if not yet verifiable, that more than Hamas fighters are involved.

50% of the residents are children. Hamas was voted in in 18 years ago this coming January.
It’s always something.

So murderous conflict is cemented for another generation. And the existence of Israel is on a timer that ends when nukes are available to terrorists.

There is a solution. At least in some part.

Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

I think they want to eliminate Hamas, not commit genocide on 2MM people including a million children.
Yes, but how do they do that without significant collateral damage?
I've read that half the population of Gaza is under age 17.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

You forgot sowing the ground with salt.

That's kind of what Rumsfeld spoke of when he was pondering the impact of our intervention in Afghanistan - i.e. sowing seeds of the next generation's combatants/martyrs for the cause.

Seriously, if the problem could be solved by eradicating them, all the way down to the beasts in the field, I'd flick the switch. Israel can invade, they can kill thousands, they can turn the majority of buildings into rubble.
It won't fix this problem.
The only time a faction hasn't taken up the sword, is when that faction no longer exists.
Maybe the only solution is the Second Coming.

I hope you and your family can stay safe - I’ve been thinking of you throughout this awful tragedy.
