I'm not in fond of this war, but as a person who had grown up here, I don't see a better solution. If you do, please feel free to tell it to me and to the Israeli government, I'm sure that they will be glad to hear out your opinion. Wars happen when there aren't better choices, that's all.
There's a much better choice: Stop blowing the fuck out of each other.

I know that's probably not likely to happen, but that is a choice which is available, and if enough people on both sides demand a cease-fire, and make a concerted effort to stop those who are continuing the violence, I believe it can happen.

It will be hard, and the way is going to be FULL of violence, misunderstanding, and terror, but you already live like that anyway.

I know it's easy for me to say that, living a long, long way away from the nearest tank, rocket, or suicide bomber, but the way I see it you always have a choice.

Right now the choice is either to live in a constant state of hell until one side completely wipes the other off the map, or do something about it.
