Thank God they didn't gain the upper hand.

I think "Israel" needs to be demilitarized and dezionified so that they cannot hurt anyone else. The people responsible for the genocide and crimes against the Palestinian people need to be tried in a court. Let an international alliance govern the affairs of a new state of Palestinians and Jews willing to live together in piece. Everyone else who wants to continue the violence can fuck Off.

I don't understand why I am being downvoted for this except that maybe some of these people screaming for peace here actually just want to reverse the killing.

It's probably because your comment shows a lack of understanding of the region. A demilitarized Israel is a destroyed Israel. They've been attacked by every surrounding state multiple times. Hamas, Lebanon/Hezbollah, and Iran have been consistently firing rockets into Israel for years.

The reason why these conflicts are so complicated is that both sides have done so many horrible things that no one is on the "right" side of history. It's like trying to argue who was the good guy in all the wars of Medival Europe.
