I am starting a splinter group because I found the rules of "Israel and Palestine Politics Discussion" to be somewhat restrictive.

No. Palestinians and Israel's other neighbours should be able to live in peace, just like the Israelites. And Netanyahu and his thugs should be allowed to peacefully rot in prison. An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind.

It's not realistic. But nobody should consider perpetual war an attractive scenario.

That's obvious. I mean genocide, destruction and invasions should have consequences in form of reparations, criminal proceedings and future restrictions etc.

That’s what I don’t get. The Gaza Strip ok wasn’t a country blah blah whatever people used to justify it. But Lebanon is a country and Israel attacked it. How is that not handled the same as Russia invading Ukraine.

Sadly I'm not sure it's obvious to everyone. But I'm happy you agree. :)
