 Maybe.

Israel never even tried for peace though.  It still hasn't tried it.  It demands peace under conditions where it continues to occupy, murder, barracade, bulldoze, and fill wells with concrete.  That's not peace.  Why doesn't Israel try for peace?  They don't actually want peace, they want to win. They want the entire territory, but they are afraid of international reprocussions if they just genocide the remaining Palestineans so they are letting it happen slowly.  But evil, flat out evil it is.  Palestineans have little choice here. They can't just live like that.

Also, Hezbollah, Iran, Russia even could come in and make a full scale war that forces Israel to honor the U.N. resolutions. But that is not likely to happen either.

Unfortunately the most likely outcome is the most unjust one... Israel will use this as an excuse to prune the Palestinean population further, 1000 for every 1.  Until they are eventually gone.

 I am going to make a video where I explain my view on this better. What I wrote in this note is very unsupported by the note, so I want to support it. And it's not very well contextualized. And I'm not making all the right consessions. So a video is in order.

Israel has tried for peace over and over in a fake couldn't-possibly-work kind of way. And I need to explain that better.

 Robert Greene ( my favorite author ) teaches this strategy in his books - he calls it "Negotiate While Advancing"

when he was talking about it i instantly thought about Israel.

In Israel's case its " negotiate while illegally building settlements in an area you're militarily occupying " which is something forbidden by the United Nations

if i recall correctly Israel broke more UN resolutions than any other country on the planet, but US has veto power and we always cover for Israel.

the Jewish media teaches us that Israel is our greatest ally because they vote with us at the UN more often than anybody else ... well, sort of ... except it's rally US that votes with Israel, or rather Vetoes whatever Israel doesn't like ...
