Anybody remember when Arafat pleaded for an international force
to protect the Palestinians from similar Israeli attacks? Well what happened? Same thing as now. The US blocked it and Israel went on to grab more land, build more illegal settlements and bulldoze more and more Palestinians homes. History is repeating.

1. And then they left Lebanon and Gaza, and started getting rid of the
settlements.

Yes, I AM going to keep repeating this.

3. "Demolish one settlement and put up three others." I give up.

4. You Should Take a Look at

progressive maps of the area starting in 1948. In each step the Israeli area expands and fills out. It was going on throughout the 90s and it's going on now. Their future plans have been laid out pretty well, too, including the wall splitting the West Bank and the formation of Palestinian bantustans. The one step backward Israel occasionally takes does not cancel out the two steps forward they take at other times.
