      And Likud wants Israel to be “from the river to the sea”. More extreme Israelis want a “greater Israel” from Egypt, Saudi Arabia, to Iraq through Syria up until Turkey.

      But if we want to achieve peace we need to deescalate things, then establish justice and drive the extremists out. The only alternative to deescalation is a great war, that would kill and displaces millions of people and quite possibly start world war 3.
