My intent was not to put equal blame on both sides. But if Israel wants peace and good relations, it won’t happen unless the people of Palestine are agreeable to the terms. And just accepting some cease fire or peace agreement doesn’t imply they like the terms, it just implies they prefer those terms over being bombed and invaded. They will need terms they can be happy with otherwise there will be another terror attack down the line and the cycle of violence might start up again.
Realistically, I don’t think this situation will be resolved in a way that eliminates violence completely. But they might be able to get to a place where they can agree to blame individuals involved in the violence rather than blaming the other group.
And yeah, as long as the current regimes have power, it will be hard to separate the intent of the individuals from the groups.
