Well Christmas the best possible outcome for those "living" in Gaza would be for the Israelis to reoccupy the place, then rebuild it with the aid money that Hamas currently fritters away enlarging their "leaders" bank accounts and buying rockets and other weaponry (None of which ever seems to do the good people of Gaza any good at all).

After a period of stable and peaceful transition the Israelis could once again unilaterally withdraw as they did in 2005, but at least by then the people of Gaza would have had some experience of living in peace.
