I'm optimistic but how many times has something like this happened and then fallen apart?
If the Palestinian groups called a cease-fire and stuck with it no matter what Israel did they would have the upper hand in world opinion. Any aggressive response by Israel after a true cease-fire by Palestine would result in a lot of pressure from foreign allies to Israel. Israel would have more to lose at that point. I'm glad the US is starting to be a little more critical of Israel. If you want peace, both sides need to be nudged a little.
