#5 Israel cannot "stop until Hamas has been destroyed and cannot be reconstituted."

So COIN this time means $$?

#6 What he means is the "revolving door" for even the most violent criminals we have in blue cities in the US now.

#7 All of Gaza will be evacuated and its population voluntarily resettled in other countries. Europe and the US both have generous programs for refugees.

#8 Then you need to implement a plan that keeps them from being able to reconstitute.

Seems more like a first step rather than the last. Unless you are willing to do this all over again, which I suspect the Israelis are not.

#11 Petraeus said, "Only by getting Gaza running again for Palestinian civilians, and eventually with a general return of civil society, will Israel truly be able to end Hamas’s source of support."

Much of Hama's support comes through Iran. A chunk of that money came from the USA. How stupid is that? We should get our own house in order, namely illegal immigration, the economy, corruption, inflation, debt, and large government.
