Netanyahu cannot let the war end

That is rather, if I may say so with respect, a rather strange thing for a moderator to say ...

"[...] hatred and bias in your [Robert's} posts [...]": 
Hatred - That is not correct. There is no hatred in my posts. I keep emotion out of responses. Nor are any of my posts motivated by hatred. I am for example happy that Israel has Arab citizens and Arab lawmakers. 
Bias - I defend Israel against Palestinian Arab falsehood propaganda. Being pro-Israel therefore my post can be considered biased to the Israeli viewpoint. However, the reader will find that I repeat the falsehood-propaganda that I am rebutting, before rebutting it.

I leave that judgment to be made by the general reader.

"peace with its neighbours and the Palestinians. Do you desire this? Do you see this as a possibility? What if any compromises would you be prepared to make to achieve it or do you see all the compromises as having to come from the other side?": 

The demand to make compromises is typically made only on Israel; never the Palestinian Arabs. 

Israel has already made all the concessions that can be reasonably expected of any nation seeking peace - under the Oslo Accords (see below). What do such people believe were the Oslo Accords then - Scotch Mist? 
Consider: How else did the Palestinian Arabs lay their hands on 40% of the West Bank and the whole of Gaza?


There have already been two attempts at a two-state solution:

1) Under the 1947 United Nations proposed Partition Plan,
where the reaction of the Palestinian Arabs was to:
start a civil war to: Oppose the U.N. Partition Plan, take ALL the land, and seek to expel or murder the Jews. 

2) Israel attempted "land for peace" under the Oslo Accords,
where the reaction of the Palestinian Arabs after tricking Israel into this agreement, was to:
claim ALL the land,
continue with their terrorism, and
fire thousands of rockets at Israel cities. 


Robert

Indeed, but the contributor would have to ask Hamas about that, since it is they who use civilians as human shields.


Robert

I agree, they are perfectly mainstream and have non fringe beliefs

Is there any 'evidence' that Hamas attacked Israel on October 7th and if there is could you share it, please?

Thank you Robert for your response.

It is interesting but to me and I suspect “the general reader” really depressing that you show no desire to compromise in any way to achieve peace.

It seems then that the only alternative for those of Robert’s ilk is either continual conflict or the complete subjugation of the Palestinian people.

Sadly at the moment Israel’s paymasters are prepared to tolerate these attitudes. Maybe one day that will change…….

I don’t see any room here for further productive discussion so will allow Robert the final word and wish him and his family the best for the future.
