Key is in the last point of your sentence '' the Isreali people '' indeed, thats also the biggest difference with the other side, that doesn't care about it's poeple except for a small club that is the leadership. but the hatred is indeed very deep sadly, i mean there almost was some kind of peace just before the millennium, but a other jewish person shot Rabin and with that the peace process.The Israel government is cruel and ruthless and always takes revenge. They were never going to sit back after these attacks, and I doubt the Israeli people would allow them to...and they have bigger and more weapons
Well i think it's a bit more complicated, in the extremist clubs, we had Isis, we now have the Taliban back, in Palestine there was Fatah that has now been replaced by Hamas for the last 20 years and first Isis and now Taliban is trying to wage a tug of words of calling them not extreme enough.Hamas know this well and clearly knew that there would be heavy retaliation by Israel in which there would be massive casualties in Gaza and other Palestinian areas. They do not care about civilian deaths and it would not surprise me if they banked on it with the aim of sparking more outrage and gaining the involvement of other Arab nations.
So it's also a continues need to cause pain and destruction because building a working society hasn't worked in the past 20 years so why would it work now?
Isreal is the similar to south Korea(although thankfully they didn't have to use it so far) in this respect, so i don't think they need support i known the US meanwhile is sending hardware, but the amount of military hardware and development on that matter that Isreal had and has is very high.This is not going to be resolved without the active involvement of other nations and I hope this is not military involvement.
Sadly something i agree with.Events in Ukraine and now Israel makes the world a much more dangerous place.
