Hussein Agha, a long-time peace negotiator, expresses deep pessimism about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, suggesting that peace is unattainable. Agha argues that the root of the conflict lies in profound emotional hatreds, exacerbated by violence from both sides. He cites historical events like the Hamas attack and Israel's military response, highlighting the increasing destructiveness of these emotions. Agha warns that these intensifying hatreds will lead to devastation and blinding rage, hindering any possibility of rational discourse or compromise.
"The conflict was not about mere lines on a map or forms of words; it was about emotions, specifically hatreds that are becoming too murderous to contain."
"He believes that the hatreds driving the conflict will grow larger and more venomous until nothing and no one is left, leaving the whole land desolate."
