#2 They'd better put an end to it in the very near future. The person in the Oval Office at the end of next January may not be a friend.

The solution is lining up 500-2500 artillery pieces near the Gaza Strip, start at the northernmost point of the Gaza and start firing, "walking" each weapon 10 feet forward after each three-four rounds. When they reach the Egyptian border, they should stop, unless Egypt provokes them. Chum the waters offshore to attract sharks, and keep a half-dozen Israeli aircraft circling with nukes aboard to disuade attacks from elsewhere. Once you're done, go in and hose the place down. Let it sit idle for four-five days, then let Israelis move into the area. Rinse and repeat for the "west bank" and Lebanon south of the Litani. When Syria and Iran try to retaliate, nuke them until there's nothing left to nuke. THEN we'll have a semblance of peace in the Muddled East for at LEAST 45 seconds.
