Yeah, and I don't expect a thesis, but when Israel's proposed "concession" has already been offered and rejected, it's kind of going too far into simplicity in my mind.

Hm, I don't know . . . maybe that an "independent" Gaza (or others) aren't merely a front for Iran-funded extremists to launch from? Some actual guarantee that the cease-fire (none of which have ever held) would be effective?

I think you'll see where I'm going with this - there are fundamental problems with any resolution, and I'm not sure either side should be expected to compromise enough for the other to accept. The real change needs to come in each side's actual endgame. I don't see that happening any time soon.
