IMO this is the real answer. Geopolitical stability in the region, at the cost of letting Israel do whatever it wants including genociding the Palestinians. It makes me sick, but I have a sinking feeling that if we allowed the entire region become unstable, that would make me sick as well.
"Quagmire" is a word for a reason.
Stability doesn't mean "peace" it means "things don't get worse." And I think we both know that things could be A LOT worse.
