It's not just Jocko. I've listened to a couple of others. But also I would not mind if the United States forced Israel to stop this under threat of cutting funding while also helping them root out Hamas and installing a government of the Palestinians choosing that was not a terrorist organization.
I'm not against violence. I'm just against violence when you have no moral standing or when you have selfish motives that aren't truly benevolent.
But you are right, Israel has done so much wrong over so many years that it's going to take 10 or 20 years to root out the hatred in the Palestinians and you've got to do right for that long. That's what you owe those people for being such oppressors and monsters.
And I don't think the Palestinians are saints or angels either. What hamas did recently is unforgivable... and it's excusable too... but there's nothing more they can give. They've lost everything... that's only Israel in the United States that have the power to make a solution work.
I've lived by these principles and I've watched it heal lifelong problems between people. It turns out when you make genuine amends for what you've done and it's sincere and not b******* with no agenda amazing things can happen.
I just think we should try that since this other thing is never worked and is never going to work.
