Of course, nothing can compensate families for lost loved ones. How they'll manage who knows. Few ask. Israel never does or cares. It prioritizes more death and destruction. It's been that way for over 64 years.
A Final Comment
Richard Falk is UN Special Rapporteur for human rights in Palestine. He's more optimistic than this writer. Hopefully, he's right.
He calls memorandum of understand terms potentially significant. He sees a possible "turning point in the long struggle between Israel and Palestine."
At the same time, it's too early to know, said Falk. Israel already confronted Palestinians too close to its border violently. Falk omitted hundreds of West Bank arrests, two killed, many injured, and perhaps much more to come.
Nonetheless, he's hopeful. He mentioned Morsi's involvement and other Arab government foreign ministers meeting with Hamas in Gaza. Doing so perhaps helps subvert Israel total isolation priority.
Ceasefire terms also "acknowledged Hamas as (Gaza's) governing authority"." Doing so enhances its political status. At the same time, of course, Washington, other Western nations and Israel vilify it as a terrorist organization. Don't expect that to change.
