      Just straight up arguing for ethnic clensing and the complete expulsion/murder of an entire people, eh?

      Not committing a laundry list of absolutely heinous crimes against humanity under false pretenses ≠ “kicking the bucket down the road”

      Om the contrary, the more Israel slaughters, starves and otherwise oppresses Palestinians, the more people are likely to be radicalized, leading to more terrorist attacks and perpetuating the endless cycle of violence.

      Ethnically cleansing Palestine of every single Palestinian (which is of course an indefensible war crime and would be even if it worked) like you suggest would not change that dynamic.
