So where does all this get us?

And that's where the issue is. Israel is not doing themselves any favours. The settlements are impossible to defend. They can't go up any more. Just as Hamas cannot be allowed to do what they do, this cannot happen from the Israeli side of things.
And just as with Hamas having no answer until the Palestinian people say no more, it is on the Israeli people who are moderate and not hardline to stand up and say "No." to the people that do this.
