To commemorate the 6th anniversary of Israel's 'disengagment' of Jews from Gaza, we seek to remind the world lessons to be learned from the exercise of giving Palestinians in Gaza the opportunity to demonstrate their ability to establish a free-republic in the absence of Israelis. Furthermore, how safe Israelis would be by withdrawing their defensive military presence from among Palestinians. This was to be the indicator of how safe Israelis would become by ceding Judea and Samaria for a Palestinian state with Gaza.
Unfortunately, Palestinian Gaza continues to demonstrate using their new border to advance their stated goal of conquering Israel. And if Israel were to withdraw from Judea and Samaria, Hamas would conquer the Palestinian Authority to continue the crusade to conquer the Jewish state. Why, then, after seeing Hamas demonstrate their true intentions for Israel, is the Obama Adminstration (or anyone else) lending credence to Palestinian Arabs' political initiatives for a sovereign state? And is the Israeli government serious about ceding land to a Palestinian enemy, or just playing along?
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has declared
his intention to prohibit Jews from living in a potential future Palestinian state. Should Israel uproot some 300,000 more Jews for a promised-peace like Palestinian Gaza has demonstrated?
