I don't know what the solution here is. This is a group of people with every right to life and liberty but they have been corralled into a corner for generations that has created a ball of rage and hate that has just committed violence and destabilization across the region for decades just to achieve their goal. The closest analog I can think of in the west is the IRA's violence and means to an end in the worst stretches of the troubles and even that is a stretch. Israel might stamp out this generation's Hamas but all the surviving children are just going to grow up into the next generation of Hamas because of this war.
