Agree. If Palestinians and Israelis want to live in a state of perpetual hatred, go for it. Their problem, not ours. We have no strategic interest in the region in 2025.
What if some of the people there don't want to "live in a state of perpetual hatred" and would gladly emigrate elsewhere? Would the US take them? Would other countries? Many (most?) Israelis and Gazans do not hold a passport to another country.
I know people like to compare what is happening in Gaza to the Holocaust. But part of the parallel is that similar to Jews in the 1930's and 1940's - most other countries are not willing to take these people in. Which, for Israel at least, was the point of it's existence. A place that would always welcome the world's Jews should they ever be forcibly displaced again with nowhere to go.
Great, it sounds like you are strongly in favor of a Palestinian homeland. Let's get it done. We already know what the borders would be so this should be easy to fix.
I have no problem with a 2 state solution. But I also don't view the Palestinians as innocent or without fault in this whole mess.
If a two state solution were enacted and agreed upon, and then Palestine attacked Israel, would you support Israel's right to respond?
Of course. If Palestine was a country instead of an occupied protectorate/colony then the morality of this whole situation would be different.
The problem though is that ironically Israel is the entity that's categorically opposed to a Palestinian homeland ever coming to fruition.
Israel needs a different leader.

Knowing Israel they would probably bomb themselves or arm Palestinians to attack themselves and then "respond"

Truly ignoring the region and letting them fight it out would be terrible for anyone who cares at all about Palestinians. I wouldn't be shocked if Israel nuked Gaza. The lunatics who want to establish Israeli settlements there are happy to wait another 300 years for their descendants to be able to live there safely afterwards.
