@lowimpaktthanks for your input. this seems reasonable to me, if a bit optimistic.
I imagine that pulling back now, de-escalating unilateraly, would be a though thing to sell to the israeli public without a significant reduction of rocket attacks at the same time. so you need hamas to play along somewhat. only you can't gave offer them anything to sweeten that deal, as that would be an encouragement to continue on the current path and in 2 or 3 years the same shit starts all over.
same problem with official negotiations. sitting down with hamas for talks without their prior explicit acknowledgement of israels right of existence isn't doable for the israelis. chance of hamas making that step, currently none.
UN administration and policing of gaza would perhaps provide the best perspective for gaza from a humanitarian standpoint, but palestinians would have to agree to that, which they can't (bascially a new occupation).
I think israel is doomed to having to hit gaza and kill children in the process until someone more flexible takes over in gaza.
