I do not know what you're reading or watching but the SZ for one has been reporting both sides quite frequently. I've just yesterday read an interview with a Palestinian-Israelian and a Jewish-Isrealian on the topic of how the West is still too hooked on the premise of two seperate states and that in their vision for peace a federal union with an unbiased and lawful constitution would be best.

I do not know if I am too unconcerned of that particular conflict right now, but it does bug me that it seems that there is barely any voices in between on the internet and most public voices. You either have unconditional support for Israel or you have people calling Isreal genocidal and comparing the state to Nazi-Germany.

How either of those sides wants to solve the issue is beyond me, if both sites keep their stance without even trying to debate on the problems (granted you have people in power on both sides of the conflict, willing to change, which I frankly don't see at all) there will not be any solution for this. Because right now Israel will bomb its neighbours into oblivion while they are being played as puppets by Iran and other invested countries or you will have to dissolute Israel which the USA and Germany will not (and in the latter case cannot) allow. So much for advocating for peace on both sides.

I’m mostly going off of the Tagesschau and FAZ, but that’s good to know about SZ. I do hear super pro Palestinian takes (I’m on the calling this a genocide side, but not on the glorifying Hamas side), but those tend to be from local Marxist groups (student town) or foreign publications, so a more mainstream, balanced source is nice.

I unfortunately agree that this is probably not going to get solved in time.
