Nobody talks about how this is rooted in ethnic conflicts millennia in the making, and how the USA and WW II Allies carved out the ethno-state of Israel in 1948, by force of arms, and have preserved the ethno-state by force of arms, ever since.
Israel's enemies are what we made them to be. Israel's atrocities are what we made them to be, putting them in constant peril and under constant attack. Both sides have recent atrocities they can point to, to justify the atrocities they are committing, in the present.
I see no real solution, but I think the USA and Europe have no right to dictate how the map is drawn in the region, and we've been doing that for over a century, with the USA picking up where weakening Europe and Britain left off. We can't solve the world's problems, but we can sure as hell return to our constitutional roots (USA) and quit ADDING to them.
Until we end our participation, there will be forever war in the region. But nobody's talking about that. Everybody's talking about either October 7 atrocities or open-air prison in Gaza and genocide. BOTH sides are locked in an existential battle, and are the pawns of foreign powers. Foreign powers, in turn, are dragged into conflicts of their own making, when using their "pawns" as proxies (Do any of you remember Israeli bombings of Iraq, several decades ago?).
