The hypothetical I'm referring to doesn't require protests.

1. Gaza declares "we're done trying to kill you guys" and means it. 2. A few quite months go by 3. Embargo and restriction start slowly lifting 4. More quiet months, life in Gaza improves 5. Repeat steps 3-4 for a few years. 6. Gaza is free, independent and thriving.

No, no, no, that would mean "legitimizing the occupation", no party in Gaza would be able to declare this policy and stay in power.
