Israel could actually follow the gist of the UNSC resolution by creating a humanitarian solution which nevertheless includes achieving its military goal to dismantle Hamas! If Israel would open its borders and create Blue Helmets/UN peace force controlled, UNHCR managed, refugee facilities in Israel, it could dismantle all military infrastructure in Gaza without causing any further civilian collateral damage. At the same time would the (disarmed) Gazans have a stable very safe zone to go to with a high likelihood to be able to return home if Gaza becomes inhabitable again (currently it is no longer). Further, by involving the international community, a starting point for co-existence as equals can be created. www.pax.ngo & www.convergence.ngo
