It will bring the long lull Israel wants and prosperity to the Middle East. Each people will be able to develop themselves until the time comes to abandon all borders and make the region one. As the parties to this longest lasting conflict in the world are not willing to move in the direction of disengagement and peace, the Great Powers should step in and impose a solution along with providing long-term security guarantees.

Scared of losing their lucrative overseas speaking fees after they retire as "war criminals.". Israel spent and lost billions of dollars during this mini war, bombed a few mainly empty buildings in Gaza, and now Hamas will dictate the law in Israel Palestinian relationship. Hamas will be free to bring in more and more sophisticated rockets until Israel is utterly destroyed. Why? Because Netanyahoo is afraid of deterrence. He is afraid to bomb Gaza to smithereens to show Arabs that Israel cannot be rocketed with virtual impunity. Israel is finished, and Netanyahoo and Barak will continue to accept $100,000 per lecture in the international lecture circuit.

There will never be peace in the MIddle East until the Messiah comes and reigns. Until then the Edomites will never agree to live in peace with anyone else. Any other thinking is flawed.... Beware, you in California will also soon have the same problems with the adherents to the "Religion of Peace"!!

I wouldn't waste my time on imagination that carries no hope.

An imposed solution? You mean like in Afghanistan or Iraq or any other country the US Americans messed up?
