There isn't a Palestinian alive that will forgive Israel for this.

Look, I get that Silver, but a ceasefire is going to be worthless without a way to guarantee security for Israel. We saw what happened in the last ceasefire that was broken, and I doubt that Israel is going to show any tolerance the next time a ceasefire is broken.
Frankly we're beyond the point of any kind of self managed ceasfire between Israel and Hamas, its simply not going to work, I expect that rockets will be flying in a month if Hamas is given a chance to rearm, re-entrench and re-recruit.
Unless there is a peace enforcement provision with teeth placed on both sides we're going to face perpetual war followed by short ceasefires and then war for eternity.
Its unacceptable to me for Israel to re-occupy Gaza, its unacceptable to me that Hamas is allowed to remain in government in Gaza. But those provisions really can't be placed in a ceasefire, that truce level stuff.
But maybe its time for a NATO observer brigade with teeth that can keep Israel and Hamas throroughly cowed.
Just my 2 cents.
