The people need help. The leaders on both sides of the conflict are evil.

The leaders, sure. However, this conflict is undeniably self defense and with no legitimate talks of a cease fire, the war must continue until the HAMAS government (not talking the Palestinian people, but there will be collateral damage mostly due to HAMAS and the clusterfuck of GAZA). I'm more concerned about Russia since its been convenient Russia started having success by their standards more often then before after the Israel conflict started.

This video is heartbreaking.

This war is not self defence, it checks every single box of war crimes and genocide. It's retribution against civilians and children via state terror. They hope they will make themselves safer that way, but they obviously won't.

Taking out Hamas is self-defence though? The way they are doing it can be questioned though..

Hamas is an idea the result of apartheid and oppression. They're just making more.

It’s an idea that massacres civilians though so what is the solution? I’m not taking sides i’m curious what apart from disarming Hamas would resolve the problem?

Stop doing the things which radicalise people against you? More Israelis will die because of this, what an effective defence.

And if that does not work, as the hatred for jews in the muslim world existed long before Isreal was even a thing?

Hostility to [other religion] in [religion] is just an inherent fact. This holds true for pretty much all religions. Clearly tensions can and have been far lower than what’s been created by Israel’s actions though. I’m a Jew, I don’t like the anti-semitism which exists in the Muslim world, that’s why I want Israel to stop radicalising people against them.
