"Give the terrorists what they want and they won't be terrorists
anymore."
Not going to happen.
We know what the terrorists want, and they are not going to get it.
The first thing they want is for us/U.S to stop supporting Israel,
so they can try/fail again to destroy it, and that is not going to
happen.
The rest of your points have already been discussed here ad
nauseam.
Samantha and Olga will agree with you, and the usual suspects will
disagree.
What the terrorists are going to get is dead.
