I’m not sure how to feel about the Gaza pull out.
I suppose the action will be judged by the result. If the result is that Palestinians see this pull out as a genuine concession in the interest of a greater peace, and meet that with a genuine move for a lasting peace, then it’s likely worth it.
But considering that there are coffee mugs and t-shirts being sold that say “Today Gaza, tomorrow Jerusalem,” it seems just as likely–if not more so–that this will be seen as merely the first step toward pushing the Israelis into the sea. Not proof that the Jews genuinely want peace, but rather proof that the Jews can genuinely be gotten rid off.
I pray for the former; I suspect the latter.
Mark my words: There’s going to be a war. Not skirmishes. Not car bombings. There’s going to be another full-blown war, and at the end of it, either there’s going to be no Israel or the Palestinian question is going to be resolved because the Palestinians will be dead.
And for those who are critical of Israel’s past aggressive posture after decades of acts of terrorism within their country…keep in mind it took exactly one act of terrorism in our country to have us attack not one, but two countries. The Gaza pull out is the equivalent of American Indians waging ten years worth of terrorist attacks and getting Delaware back.
