impractical. israel isn't going anywhere any time soon. all arab nations united wouldn't be able to defeat israel. i'm not saying we should just lay down and concede defeat, but we need a new approach sooner rather than later.
Yes, that's happening as far as I know. Hamas is not responsible for the suffering of the people of Gaza though, even though they're not a favourable government, any government in Gaza would suffer similar misfortunes whilst trying to achieve peace and justice for the Palestinian people. The blame must rest solely on the state of Israel.
Once we accept that fact, we can find a better solution through the support of a more calculated resistance such as that of Hezbollah and it's backers around the world. First and foremost the world opinion. Israel's only way of trying to control world opinion is through propogandists and it's blockade on Gaza, by disallowing journalists into the Gaza strip to see the atrocities being commited. By using verified statistics to show the damage Israel is doing on the people of Gaza and then comparing that to their apparent casus belli (to protect the people of Israel) we can see that not only is their response disproportionate, but that it is infact not a response at all.
Israel broke the cease-fire.
Israel has been blockading Gaza of the neccessites to life for 18 months.
Israel has killed an estimated 300 children.
Israel is starving the 1.5 million Gazans by blocking neccessary aid and attacking those who deliver aid.
Israel is using illegal weapons such as white phosphorous and other incendiary weaponry.
and in response...
Hamas is firing ineffectual weaponry on civilian targets with a negligible comparative effect.
