    Good Piece

    The only thing missing is a possible solution. I would love to see the Israeli's stop the attack on Gaza, open the borders to all manner of goods and people in both directions, and help rebuild the Gazan infrastructure. That would be ideal.

    My only problem is not seeing how Hamas would consider that a massive victory and a justification of its tactics. How could anyone not convince them to stop firing rockets and not send suicide out? I can't see that.

    And I don't know what the answer is?
