Sue for peace, accept the least terrible terms you can.
At one time Palestinians had so much support all their neighbors went to war for them, this goodwill appears to have since evaporated due to their behaviors and unwillingness to compromise. Now they are just being used as convenient pawns against Israel, as their lands ebb away. If they are to to be free and autonomous once again I don’t see any other viable path.
It’s nice to be able to tag people who support oppression and ethnic cleansing.
