Likely an unpopular opinion, but if Hamas releases the hostages and surrenders it's leadership, it is more likely to result in cessation of military action for some time, than if Israel stops bombing.

The current calls to stop bombing is akin to telling the US to stop bombing cities in Germany during world war two.

Israel is looking to exploit and oppress, but don't forget that Hamas will not stop until all Jews and non Muslims are exterminated.

Simply not true, in 2018 iirc there were about 1500 Palestinian deaths and 0 israeli deaths. Israelis are not the victims. They constantly bully Palestinians out of their homes under military protection. Currently the civilians of gaza are under siege and even if they wanted to leave they cannot, they have nowhere to go.

True. Hamas also offered to release the prisoners in exchange for all Palestinian prisoners in Israeli prisons. Israel continues to refuse the swap and as a result some have died in the bombings.
