Is There a Gaza War Solution?

By Rich Kozlovich

Yesterday I published these two pieces, Western Stupidity and the Two State Solution and The Gaza Starvation and Genocide Farce outlining two things. First, the leaders of western nations are clueless and they'll embrace any lie that degrades Israel and promotes these terrorists and the terrorism they practice, which will come back to haunt them, and they will deserve what's coming their way.  

What's also shocking, although given the insanity they've been spewing out for decades it shouldn't be, is how the media has warped this whole story:

The Media’s Shameful Modesty over Skeletal Israeli Hostages - Evyatar David is skin and bones. He is 24 years old; he was 22 when he was kidnapped 668 days ago by Hamas at the Nova music festival. Mainstream Western media have given little or no coverage to the video released by Hamas, in which David is forced to dig his own grave in a Gaza tunnel, barely able to hold the shovel, while the other hostage, Rom Braslavski, also emaciated, is shown writhing in agony from hunger. His captors seem to revel in his physical and mental anguish. Two hostages walled up alive in Gaza’s catacombs built with UN funds...........

Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee exposes how CBS News edited an interview Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee has essentially accused CBS News of leaving so much of an interview with him on the cutting room floor that it effectively changed the tenor of the interview. CBS News’s goal was obvious: To make Israel look genocidal and to make the Trump administration look either feckless or complicit..........

What's most shocking is the suicidal mentality of leftist Israelis who are marching demanding the end of the war and the return of all the hostages, no matter the cost.  While I can certainly understand their deep emotional need to see their loved ones returned, I can't understand their willingness to destroy Israel in the process.  

Hamas doesn't want the war to end, and accepting cease fire agreements, which they will invariably violate, aren't the same as ending wars.   They're a death cult that wants Israel destroyed, and if taking a lot of hostages gets them what they want, they'll just keep taking hostages, making agreements they won't keep, and getting enough time to rearm and attack again.  

What can possibly be going on in the minds of nearly 600 Israeli ex-security officials who appealed to Trump to end the war saying:

“It is our professional judgement that Hamas no longer poses a strategic threat to Israel,” reads the open letter, which was sent on Friday and shared with the media later. “You did it in Lebanon. Time to do it in Gaza as well.” “Chasing remaining senior Hamas operatives can be done later. Our hostages can’t wait.”

Andrea Widburg posted this piece, The suicidal impulses of leftist Jews on August 9, 2025 expressing dismay at the irrational destructive views of leftist Israeli Jews. 

Joan Swirsky posted an interesting piece explaining the geyser of Jew-hatred over all, but her analysis of what she calls, "The Self-Hate Factor", is interesting asking and explaining how it's possible for how Jews can hate themselves.

Surprisingly, the answer is simple: It’s hard to be a Jew, and this species is simply not up to it.  Yes, they can be proud of their brains and talents, but when it comes to their backbones — that’s another story. For many Jews, being a member of the world’s most historically vilified minority is just “too much” to cope with.  Liberal Jews are not psychologically up to any of these challenges, hence their pathetic over-eagerness to “understand” the people who hate them, to accommodate the enemies of Israel, to capitulate to the ever-escalating and invariably one-sided demands for “compromise,” to slavishly follow Jews like linguist Noam Chomsky, playwright Tony Kushner, and journalist Peter Beinert, who are so suffused with Jew-hatred that their entire lives have been devoted to amputating any vestige of Jewish identity from their beings.

So, when Netanyahu and his government decided it was time for a permanent military occupation of Gaza as the only workable solution to the end of this war, the left in and out of Israel, the media and western Europe, went nuts.  

Several world leaders have condemned the plan, and the UN has warned it would lead to "more massive forced displacement" and "more killing". Hamas warned of "fierce resistance" to the move. The plan also faces fierce opposition within Israel – including from military officials and hostages' families. 

What's in this plan of occupation? There are five principles involved. 

1. The disarmament of Hamas
2. The return of all hostages, both living and dead
3. The demilitarisation of the Gaza Strip
4. Israeli security control over the Gaza Strip
5. The establishment of an alternative civilian administration that is neither Hamas nor the Palestinian Authority.

They would continue to provide humanitarian aid to the "civilian population outside the combat zones"..... aid that would actually be delivered to the civilian population and not stolen by Hamas, so it's understandable why Hamas is outraged over this, calling this "a new war crime"..... "We warn the criminal occupation that this criminal adventure will cost it dearly and will not be an easy journey......"  Well, I agree, it won't be an easy journey, but especially for Hamas.  

I'll end this piece by stating all geopolitics is predicated on three major factors.  Geographics, Demographics, and Economics.  Sustainability is an issue, which I will address next week.
