Invade and Divide
Has anyone pointed out that Israel’s invasion of Gaza could have less to do with the kidnapping of an Isreali soldier than with the agreement reached by Hamas and Fatah regarding the new administration, their statement shared aims and their tentative steps towards recognising Israel? In other words, the invasion could be seen as another example of invade and divide.

I find this rather hard to believe. Israel was already pressing ahead with their plan to unilaterally impose a two-state solution. It's hard to see that the Isrealis would face more pressure as a result this reconciliation.
And after all, they were provoked. Palestinian gunmen snuck into Israel itself, killed two soldiers, and kidnapped a third. I don't think you're suggesting that Israel orchestrated this, but anyone who does may as well go ahead and blame Karl Rove.
