    If hamas stops existing another will take its place.

    Terrorism does not work the same way as states do. Its a hydra.

    The only way to solve this is to end the reason why it exists in the first place. Give palestinians a viable state, stop with the settlements, allow international supervision.

    If people have a job, safety, food on their plate, they tend to not be terrorists.

      That’s one possibility,. not a guarantee

      If people have a job, safety, food on their plate, they tend to not be terrorists.

        It’s not a guarantee that a power vacuum in an unstable state will result in another dictatorial religious-authoritarian terrorist group inserting itself into said power vacuum in a middle eastern undeveloped area?

        As long as you don’t count an occurrence rate of 100% to be a guarantee, then sure.

          This is why I think that Israel shouldn’t allow a power vacuum. “You break it, you fix it,” and this war has broken quite a lot.

            Israel shouldn’t do a lot of things, it’s doubtful they’ll attempt to fix that. They’d rather the terrorists keep coming back, they love to kill Muslims just as much as Muslims love killing them. The two groups are both children that are constantly trying to get their big brothers into a global war over their ancient goat herder god beliefs.
