This is a garbage take. I’d strongly reconsider your stance on what is or isn’t simple about the Israel/Gaza conflict.
For one, it turns out that Hamas had a lot more than sticks on 10/7.
The only simple thing about this conflict is that nothing about it is simple. Simplistic takes like this are meaningless trash, and I really genuinely mean that with no ill intent.

- borski 3y agoI certainly hope, for all our sakes, that Hamas and Iran do not become the largest governing powers in that region long-term. If they do, I may not have grandchildren to “lie to,” because I, a Jew, will be dead. But that’s cool, you just let Hamas do its thing, since that’s definitely the simplest answer to this simple problem. Have a nice life. [edit] Actually, I take it back; there is one simple solution: Hamas walks out and surrenders. I guarantee you, if that happens, the bombing and ground operations end tomorrow. Unfortunately, that will never happen; instead, Hamas will continue to bomb the internationally agreed-upon escape routes to Egypt to, you know, “save” those leaving. And don’t read this as defending Israel. I’m not happy with the invasion and the bombing. But I don’t have to pretend anything about the conflict is simple, just to make myself feel better about the slogans I’m shouting at protests.
