Israel is under constant attack by terrorist organizations and states whose official goal is the destruction of Israel. One of these terrorist organizations has over a 100 Israeli hostages. It's not about "peace", it's about "existence". The message should be about finding a long lasting way to co-exist in peace and good faith
I agree with the point that most Arab nations have accepted that Israel is here to stay. That said, as long as Israel is consistently attacked by terrorist organizations along multiple borders, not to mention the hostages, means that the fear for its existence has yet to run its course. I hope to never hear of the far-right Israeli government again, nothing more to add here. I believe the Palestinians are more likely to achieve their statehood if they also normalize their relations with Israel, accept Israel's existence, denounce Hamas and other terrorist organizations, and give up on the idea of a right of return (I understand this last point is highly controversial). I don't agree that there's a genocidal colonial project in Palestine and I still think that a peaceful co-existence is possible. Both sides must negotiate in good faith and accept concession.
Israel was created in 1948.

Thank you.
You're welcome.
But only one of these two has the capability to and is actively working towards wiping the other off the map. I'd say any lasting peace would have to start there.
I agree, lasting peace would has to start with not wanting to wipe the other side off the map. Hopefully one day we will agree that it is the Palestinians that must accept the existence of Israel. Hamas’ ideology is simple: “Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it”.
