No argument from me. Truly. What Israel is doing cannot be justified.
But not holding Hamas, and Gazans who supported them for decades (either implicitly or through turning a blind eye) accountable for their role in this, robs them of the agency you want them to have.
To have peace both sides need to acknowledge that the other side has the right to live in peace without fear of being attacked by the other. That starts with Hamas/Gaza leaving their "Israel into the sea" beliefs in the trash bin of history, and with Israel stopping this insane overreach and clamping down on their own internal issues which do nothing but inflame tensions.
