    I don't even know what that war's goal is at this point?

    Short of extermination you're just going to have more and more desperate people there, and those are the folks who turn towards terrorism.

    Years from now I expect we will be in the same place again.

      The goal is the same as ever, massacring Palestinians and make their life hell so they'll move away from Palestine, leaving it for Israel to annex.

      Given the number of organizations that have labeled what’s happening in Gaza as a genocide I think it’s pretty clear what the objective is and it’s reprehensible that the United States continues to support it the way it does.

        The United States is, by all appearances, a willing accomplice.

      This is the goal: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_Israel

    Mark my words. Few years from now , all who had the power to stop the genocide will claim that they were the ones who were warning us about it but we were not interested. History will be rewritten to highlight how morally ambiguous the situation was and how the perpetrators had no choice but to kill everyone. War is peace. Genocide is love.
