You think that practical obliteration of Gaza and hundreds of thousands of innocent dead is preferable to continuing attempts to long term solutions?

Who's attempting long-term solutions? Because it's sure as hell not Israel and its far right government. No seriously the current situation of Palestine is specifically so that the Palestinian people have no representative who can call for a two-state solution.

Also given what we see from the West now, I don't see the empathy doing much.

Who is/was attempting a peaceful solution?

A few links:

After Hamas’s brutal attack all voices of reason have been silenced.

All we can do now is seat back and watch the apocalypse unfurl.

Who is/was attempting a peaceful solution?

Well, the Oslo accords were almost there until a Zionist assassinated the prime minister, who was replaced by Bibi and we all know how that went. The 2012 ceasefire was also going somewhere, but Israel didn't hold their end of the deal (along with being vehemently opposed to the newly formed unified Palestinian government and fighting it at every turn) so the whole thing fell through. An Israel ruled by the far-right, and especially by Bibi, can't and won't pursue peace.

Bibi actively created and maintained the current situation in which peace is impossible.

Prime ministers come and go. Many Israeli citizens fell empathy for Palestinians but a lot less do now.

Bibi barely won a majority of the votes, now the country will stand in solidarity behind him. Thanks Hamas.
