"Gaza is shattered. Here’s some hope." [1]

These include minimizing civilian deaths; improving conditions for displaced Palestinians; and …. laying the groundwork for a Palestinian state not dominated by Hamas.

The editorial says “Gaza will need to be rebuilt — physically, but also politically and socially“ with the creation of a Palestinian state. It says:

Israel should recognize now that there is no reasonable, long-term settlement with the Palestinians that does not involve the creation of a Palestinian state.

Recognizing that Prime Minister Netanyahu has opposed the two-state solution, the editorial urges the Biden administration to “make clear that Oct. 7 has changed the picture, and Israel’s policy must change, too.”

Alternative approaches — direct Israeli occupation of Gaza, blockade, various forms of limited Palestinian self-rule — have all failed.

The editorial describes Gaza as “a seaside strip 25 miles long and about four to seven miles wide.” It says “huge sections of Gaza are reduced to rubble, its civilian population huddled in tent camps, desperately in need of food and medicine.”
