Israel hates negotiations. Netanyahu funded Hamas. And you're writing comedy and I just can't be bothered. You got me. No you didn't.

Only a Zionist would call equal rights and the right to self-determination a "maximalist" position.

Answer me one thing. Who will be the people who flow into Israel while the whole world sees the ugly state it has become?

A weirdly supremacist ethno-state is not a solution. It might seem like a good idea but I don't think it has legs to be honest.

Israel are unwilling or unable to hold to agreements and that makes them an unreliable partner. The same has been true of America with Iran.

Both Iran and America also have a maximalist approach in terms of use of remote weapons and reluctance to accept casualties. That limits the effectiveness of "might makes right". Massively more so in the larger Iran.

And whilst Gaza might seem like a collosal defeat it could be seen in a more positive light in a culture that views sacrifice as noble. Again same could be true of Iran.

People really love this "might makes right" stuff till it's their civilians being killed in large numbers, then suddenly it's a problem.

Your arguments directly conflict

Not true. Hamas wanted to do hostage exchange for Palestinian women and children held in Israeli prisons and truce within the first week. Israel refused.
