I am telling you since the beginning of this debate Israelis are not going to target civilians.
We are not educated that way and I as someone who served at the IDF know how things work.
ye but if the world sees x10 times Palestinian (not Hamas) dead vs x1 times Israeli, and 20,000 tonnes of bombs dropped across a 5km patch of land with 1m civilians, the world is going to condemn Israel. again, which is why more attention to israel supporting civilians, is very good public relations right now.

If you look clearly at the current map of Israel, how can a two state solution be viable.
I am going to be candid about this, but this is just me.
It is a do if you damn and damn if you don't situation.
How are you going to divide up the "land" for a two state solution ?
that was my point the other day re: landlocked. the only two state solution is where a Palestinian state is a single country, not separated like gaza and the west bank, and having a border with more then just israel, and ideally, having a port.
That is all not credible, ergo, there is no solution or happy ending here.
