    I’m for ending the war through a unilateral surrender of Russian forces and the trial of Mr Putin for crimes against humanity. However, my opinion doesn’t have a lot of influence over whether that happens.

    Similarly, I’m for ending the war in Gaza through the voluntary disarmament of Hamas, the repudiation of terrorism as a way of life, the handover of illegal settlements to displaced Palestinian Arab civilians, and the prosecution of Netanyahu for treason and war crimes. But I don’t expect to get to make that decision either.

      through the voluntary disarmament of Hamas, the repudiation of terrorism as a way of life,

      And it’s a very good thing you don’t make any decisions with such an ignorant understanding of the situation.

      Like people decide to be terrorists as “a way of life”.

        Exactly, the naivete is outstanding. Hamas is defending their land against an occupier colonist country. Palestinians are the indigenous folk, the Zionists are the trespassers doing genocide of those indigenous people.
