Israel needs flattening.
Because that will totally bring peace to the region, remember this current rount of Israeli aggression into Lebanon, the Palestine, and Iran started with the October 7th attack. Yes there are reasons why that attack happened but attacks and death do not tend to lead to peace unless mass genocide supresses the will to get revenge, and even then unless the people is completely whipped out there will be a memory and a lingering anger with those that remain. Also Israel has nukes and unless you're a fan of Nuclear Holocausts I'd say the best option for peace was the one that was happening prior to October 7th 2023, one where political pressure from within Israel was making government funding for settler groups, and Orthodox Jews who didn't serve in the IDF getting special treatment and funds, while embittering Arab Israelis and Palestinians. One where the Netanyahu government was do unpopular and fighting off corruption charges constantly that a war causing a rally around the flag was the only reason why that party is still in power and why they are going for broke when it comes to Iran. If you want a peaceful world the best option unfortunately is not to punish exclusively but to give exit ramps before the punishment that have a tangible benefit for those involved, this works on individuals for preventing recidivism among criminals or even first time offenses by having basic needs easily attainable (food, lodging, education, work) for the majority, and also on governments who are run by individuals, if a dictator is told they will be arrested and tried in the Haig for crimes against their people or neighboring countries and that there is a bounty on their head dead or alive and there is no exit ramp either for the dictator nor his elites then you will have a situation like what happened to Gadaffi, Hussain, Hitler, any number of Egyptian leaders, the Shah, Ceausescu, and any number of failed dictatorships, they will make the lives of their citizenry and those of their neighboring enemies worse.
you figured out Israel's game plan
As well as many other groups, including Hamas if they ever get enough military power. The best solution for all is a peace plan and to get extremists out of government.
