In reply to the discussion: I'm going to go out on a limb here... [View all]Generals and Presidents are positions within governing bodies. Not helpful to date.
I suggest that sixty civilian women are gathered, provided secure and comfortable accommodation, and asked to define a viable path forward so all can live in peace. All are mothers. Half have had civilian children killed in the various conflicts over the last 50 years, and half have not. Thirty are Israeli and thirty are Palestinian. Give them a month. I have little doubt they will provide a workable path forward.

This much is obvious: Before Hamas sent their first missile into Israel, They knew what Israel's reaction would be.
