I agree. In order to break the cycle of retribution we need to achieve justice. Otherwise people will continue to seek it. The difficulty includes that this wont work without having everyone involved face the reality of their actions. We will need extensive education and a process that will probably exceed the Nuremberg trials by a large factor. The only alternative to achieve “peace” in the long run would be to completely genocide or ethnically cleanse one side from the region. That is how the US got away with what it did to the native Americans.
I agree with this take completely. The parent comment just seemed to encourage senseless retribution without nuance, which is what I tried to voice my opposition to.
