(14,040 posts)43. And creating more Hamas supporters
As I see it, the only way this is going to end "peacefully" is for Israel to completely decimate Palestine (which I'm against). If Israel leaves anyone alive who is able bodied, Hamas will say "See what a monster Israel is? Join our fight!" and people will. Same thing all over the Middle East. Our war in Iraq created many more terrorists than originally existed. In a sense this is a continuation of the "war on terror" and sadly, those that are fighting against terrorism are the ones doing the better job of creating new terrorists.
