That "punishing" which will lead to a presidency that will certainly not listen to even the concept of a ceasefire, isnt rational. No. Leading to more deaths. Whereas Harris had already spoken about ceasefire and formulated a plan to end the war. As Trump uses palestenian as a slur, and says he'll let Israel "finish the job". Thats not pragmatic, strategic, or rational. Just emotional.
You can't be so stupid that you didn't think of this. Guarantee you disappear now. Letting Trump win will kill more palestenians, not the same amount, more. And you'll have no chance of ending it, versus a much higher chance.
