Hope would require peace efforts from both sides. The way I see it, there is no side interested in peace there. Unless you count peace after total extermination of the enemy side, that is… 🙂

hey stud, I agree with you!
so which side will have an easier time to exterminate the other first?

you could say Israel has the weapons to do it
but the other side has a neighbors who’ll be willing to take up revenge on their behalf
