Gaza's Pullout

Wish I knew what they are up to? The gaza is/was a very strategic piece of ground, fairly won when the Arab world decided to sneak attack the Israelis and got thier asses kicked loseing the Gaza in the process. The defense of said terra firma has been a drain on resources to be sure but leaving it may/may not be a strategic soft spot. The situation psychologically is that the Israelis who fought and died repelling the invaders feel giving it up is a wasted step backwards. The Arabs of course, feel they should be rewarded for sucker punching and losing as if it never happened.
To get to the marrow one has to go back very far in history and visit the who was there first scenario. The question is, were the Mulims there first or the Jews in which case the Jews win hands down because there wasn't any such thing as Islam until 1500 yrs ago and even Christianity pre dates that. The ancestors of the present day Palestinians were probably Jews 2000 yrs ago! Controversial quagmire for sure, ongoing war, absolutely. These modern wars (skirmishes) baffel the hell out of me, 100 yrs ago the palestinians wouldn't even exist because of the terrorist crap they've been up too. Pretty lucky I guess!
Today, the Gaza has been reluctantly cleared of settlers by young Israeli soldiers who sadly but dutifully followed orders. Democracy in action as it was the will of the majority. Hats off to all in a heartbreaking situation!
Woe to the Palestinians if Abu Mazzin (Mahmoud Abbas), the replacement as President for Yasser Arafat, can't reign in the terrorist groups Hamas,Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah and others who albeit at this very moment are planning attacks from their new outpost against Israelis. If so, all bets are off and Israeli anger will be like a scythe in a wheat field!
