And to your second point. Yes, Israel still destroys homes in the West Bank.

As I said previously, Israel needs to just leave the Palestinians alone. I understand the attack on Gaza, I really do. But after Hamas is rooted out (which I have serious doubts it will happen), Israel needs to be like alright, security threat is eliminated, here's your land, leave us alone and we'll leave you alone.
What I agree with is that once Hamas is rooted out, West Bank issues need to be solved. West Bank is a different issue altogether and many arguments that are valid for Gaza are not valid for West Bank. In fact the reason why this conflict appears so complex for outsiders is because Gaza and West Bank are lumped together. They should be dealt with separately.
