When in the midst of parenthood, this is the "price" associated with letting your kid do whatever they're doing that would normally annoy the living piss out of you in order to obtain a brief solace to accomplish any sort of meaningful task you've set out to do.
Think of it in this context:
Your 4 year old is outside flinging mud against the house. They're preoccupied, and normally you don't want your kid caking your house in mud. However, maybe you're talking with a neighbor or doing yard work. You want to keep doing that thing because the kid is distracted for a bit.
If we think about the situation pretty simplistically, you can either:
A) Yell at them to stop, whereby they'll likely find something equally as irritating or perhaps dangerous to do while you're still engaged in whatever you were doing.
B) Let them keep doing it and stay distracted for an undetermined amount of time, hopefully a while.
So once you're basically weighing how disruptive your kid's activity is versus the bit of time you'll receive to do what you need to do.

Person 1: Yesterday Timmy was flinging gravel across the yard all over the damn place.
Person 2) Is that why my damn window is broken?
Person 1) Yeah, but you know, it was the price of peace. At least I was able to finish up the deck.

Which is why the Palestinians are going to do... What, exactly? You've killed Hamas... And the rest of the Palestinians are supposed to do what? Live in peace with the Jews? You just said that they can't do that. You've murdered their children. And have sniped several of them on several occasions BEFORE Oct 7th... So... What happens after you kill Hamas?
Hym "So... If you can't live in peace with the people who murdered your children... What are the Palestinians supposed to do after you've killed Hamas? Not live in peace with the people who killed their kids, I guess. That can't be done. It's impossible for them to do that. I guess they'll just have to... I don't know... Rape and murder your kids again, except... Like, later. I mean... You have literally left them no other option! The thing that would be convenient for you is theoretically impossible, to you. Or is it that YOU can't love in peace with the people who murdered your kids but the Palestinians CAN do that, or.... Like, what? It's impossible for THE JEWS to live in peace with people who murder their kids but everyone else HAS TO do it... Non-Jews HAVE to live in peace with the people who murdered their kids or the Jews are allowed to murder THIER kids indiscriminately. Ok... That makes sense... That seems fair for everyone!"

The Peace of Princess Peach, is the Peach Treaty, where she says she loves Mario, and Luigi, equally, so both Mario Bros., and Luigi Bros., are equally valid.
The Peace of Princess Peach, led to the end of a crisis in The Mushroom Kingdom. Both Mario, and Luigi, are equals! Phew!

He's a match of Serenity and profound wisdom. He's calm. And leads his followers in the right direction. He comes third after Moe's and Jesus. He's the character to watch. He is able to read jn between what eyes can see. He is spiritually awake and can interpret Numbers very well. Talk about Peace. Talk about the Purpose of the Kingdom of heaven. He restores and rebuilds hearts and life.
