If the Palestinians lay down their arms the war is over. If the Israelis lay down their arms they’d get genocided. Hamas explicitly calls for death to the Jews and they have deliberately targeted civilian populations time and time again. Hamas doesn’t want a negotiated solution to the conflict, they want a Final Solution to the Jewish Question. There is one side here that can just stop the violence, and it’s not Israel.
If Palestinians lay down their weapons they are still driven off their land, getting murdered by fundamentalist settlers, killed by IDF and imprisoned in Gaza and the West bank.
Also many Israeli politicians are very outspoken about wanting to commit Genocide, denying Palestinians being humans and denying them being a people.
