In addition to Elder’s excellent analysis (see the post below) of those who believe Palestinian-terror supports deserve a state, read Journo’s scathing critique of our government’s continued support for this absurd notion and the consequences for all of us.
Gaza withdrawl.
ReplyDeleteThe Palestinians have been developing their rocket tech for a while now - more powerful with longer range. If you are operating in a conflict zone and the enemy has effective rocketry, the last thing you need is an exposed position. Gazan settlements were a very exposed position so withdrawl had a definite tactical advantage.
If the settlements had been maintained it was a matter of time before one was attacked by a massed rocket attack.
