Everyone has blood on their hands in this conflict not least the folk who supply Hamas with weapons which enables them to attack Israel in the first place.
I totally agree everyone has blood on their hands and I'm not excusing the murderous Hamas terrorists for one moment. They are as oblivious to ordinary Palestine suffering as the Israeli government is.

However, an eye for an eye is not the way to settle this conflict. Hamas and Israel will ensure it prolongs itself far into the future. The only possibility of a settlement is for the bigger client powers to take the responsibility to settle it themselves.
