Middle America's Worldview

Strategically, its not a bad idea. I think there were 6000 jews compared to nearly 1 million palestinians. By pulling them out, they Israel army would have a better chance to hold the new border. In addition it should appease the palestinians the fact of fulling giving the land over to them and show the world, Israel is working toward peace.

However, the fact is, regardless of how much land Israel gives over to the palestinians, they will simply want more. News are already showing, the land they have given over is being destroyed and uprooted.

Scenes of jewish brothers pulling other jewish brothers down from their synagogues is a tragedy. Camera's showing tormented souls losing their homes and land. Although, being told they will be paid a specific amount for their homes and land doesnt give much comfort to those losing. I am reminded of the fighting in U.S. homeowners over their land by states wanting to put in roads and buisiness's. It doesn't seem so different. So why doesn't the world care?

Seems Israel is asking United States to assist in this compensation to those losing their homes in the tune of 2.3 billion in aid. My question is why not assistance from the U.N.? In addition to Israel asking for assistance, Abbas is also requesting United States for assistance in obtaining equipment to bolster the security forces, such as communications gear, computers and vehicles. My question is, where is United States getting all this money to provide aid?

I understand overall what Israel is trying to prove. They will pull out as agreed but the crazies will still attack and commit suicide bombings, only at a better advantage point.

However, everyone with a clue already understands this and the show is not required.
