That seems like a reasonable starting point (along with a cease fire by Hamas) to me.



What about the rockets?

It's very telling to me that my request of people such as Nage to list Palestinian grievances went unanswered. He is completely uninterested in any resolution other than the one in his mind. That is his right, as it is the right of a pro-Palestinian fanatic to unequivocally demand the converse. But it's also our right to realize that he's not all the interested in a meaningful and realistic path forward for the region. I hate to say it, but there is nothing gained from trying to engage Nage in the general conversation of this thread.
