How could this realistically happen in our lifetime? Genuine question.
Israel would need to actually be invaded by the rest of the world for that to happen.
Very unlikely unless a pro Palestinian president is elected soonish
204 countries including Israel and not one is good-hearted AND powerful enough to undo the mistake Britain made by creating Israel.
Correct. The central issue is that "and powerful enough" part, since the US military will go 100% to war with them if they try to do anything about it, and no country wants that, generally speaking.
The correct choice would have been to pressure the American government to do something, but since our whole strategy for doing that was to let the person come to power who is ten times worse than even the horrifying standard of US presidents on this issue, we sorta fucked that whole thing up.
Get the Arab League on board.
I'm not sure why they're calling on Hamas to disarm now. Presumably because of Oct 7th, but surely they know if Hamas disarms, it's over for Gaza, and then for the West Bank, the Golan Heights, Lebanon, Syria, maybe even the Sinai again.
