Loaded words:
"simply"
"the right"
"stop shooting rockets"
"everything... solved"
Through the tone and vocabulary of your post, I am not convinced that you have a good grasp of how very, very complicated this whole situation is. If you did, I am not sure if you would dare say that anything is "simply" solved in the Middle East (or anywhere else, for that matter). People don't start shooting rockets across borders just for fun; they have their reasons, and the reasons are not simple. People will also not simply stop shooting rockets and suddenly realize, out of the blue, that "hey! we've been wrong for the last 60 years! let's all shake hands and sing kumbaya."
Hey, for our part, why can't we "simply recognize" that Palestine had "the right to live in peace," before Israel came into the picture? That's their perspective, and is it really so much less reasonable than yours? Why not at least entertain their feelings, to try and understand why the fuck people have been so pissed off for 60 years? That's the only way that dialogue could possibly lead ANYwhere.
In any case, it is all one big clusterfuck. There are no easy solutions, and there is no ONE group to blame. Please do not make such claims.
