Were such a non-radical leadership cadre to be instated, their survival would be very much in doubt-- absent extended occupation and martial law. Gaza, in terms of depth of indoctrination, outstrips Nazi Germany-- "de-Hamas-ifying" Gaza would be a harder task than de-Nazification was. And the latter was accomplished only by decades of extensive economic support and military occupation. Moreover, the overall culture and infrastructure of education in post-WWII Germany was vastly more developed than that of Gaza and the West Bank. In West Germany, the West saw a future economic powerhouse as a stalwart ally as payoff for the enormous investment.
The occupation won't be accomplished with UN troops, either-- the occupation forces will face significant terrorist threats for an extended period. Couple continuous loss of human life with enormous financial costs, along with a questionable payoff at the culmination of the rebuilding process, and I am hard-pressed to propose a likely benefactor. No Arab country will step forward.
