I mean, still, you don't want to cross them Israelis but a political truce does not seem likely. I don't want to think about what happens when they bomb Iran (which now seems to have tacit approval from the rest of the world).
Hopefully enough people will be able to drive policy a new way. Like the bumper sticker, If the people lead, the leaders will follow.

Palestine is often portrayed as the unsuspecting victim. This is largely not correct. This in no way exonerates Israel's action, but let's not forget that we're talking about Hamas here, not Palestinians mothers for peace.
