As long as there is something that gives hope of eventual victory for the Palestinian cause they will not come to terms. The idea that no we're never getting all of Palestine back has to take root before this can be solved.
I believe the solution would be to peel off all the supporting outside States but we are a long way from that. The Saudi's and other Arabian Peninsula states recognizing Israel would be a big step in that direction which I think preventing that was the main strategic target of the HAMAS attack.

That is horseshit. Not all the people in Gaza chose to pick or support Hamas.
There are, and have been huge swaths of people that do not support. Also as with any iron fisted government there are those who support them out if fear. For Chico or any other propagandist to say that every person living in Gaza is an anti semite or a terrorist is 110% horseshit.
