Clearly many of us have different backgrounds and viewpoints on these complex matters. I think it would be quite interesting that rather than simply bickering and criticizing one another, what if everyone suggested how they foresee a peaceful resolution being reached in the region.

Ya, that goes back thousands of years, and it achieves nothing. They are both horrible. They both don't act or negotiate in good faith. And at this point they both see the only solution as a total elimination of the other side. So if we are supporting, or even standing by while Israel acts, well aren't we just as complicit as if we funded Hamas to do the same?
