Pragmatismo israelo-palestiniano...na análise.

"(...) For its part, Hamas may find that its victory over Fatah is only the beginning of its problems. The group will need to deal with a hostile international community, tension with Egypt, internal ideological divisions and provision of services to Gaza's civilian population. Similar to King Pyrrhus, whose victory over the Romans was so costly that his men were later defeated, Hamas may find that though it won the battle, it has ultimately lost the war.
We shouldn't expect the way ahead to be easy or that we're on the verge of a Swiss-style utopian peace. Hamas isn't disappearing any time soon, Fatah members haven't suddenly turned into card-carrying Zionists, and Israeli society's ability for extensive territorial compromise is yet to be fully tested.
But if we want to maintain Israel as a Jewish democratic state and prevent the inevitable slide towards anarchy and increased international isolation - the eventual result of continued occupation - we need to find a Palestinian address with which to implement a two-state solution.
Recent events in Gaza may provide our best opportunity for some time to come."
