        The best way to create a lasting peace is to let aggressors do whatever they want?

        It would work, simply letting Russia finish a genocide against Ukraine or Israel finish a genocide against Palestine. The conflict would certainly be resolved that way. But if you think it is an acceptable outcome, you value peace too highly.

      Well that’s just clearly historically false. Israel wouldn’t even exist without them making war on their neighbors. Or as it initially played out, without winning wars against their neighbors who started those wars.

      About Palestine specifically, it doesn’t seem that not making war against them worked brilliantly either.
