Today's Bit of Happy News

From the WP:

A top Israeli security official said there has been a frustrated acknowledgement in Israeli intelligence and military circles that, as it stands, there is no obvious alternative to continued Hamas rule in Gaza. The Palestinian Authority is not strong enough to return to power there; Israel does not want to reoccupy an area it vacated in 2005; and there is concern that any collapse of Hamas rule might increase the influence of even more militant groups.
