Gaza Evacuations

CNN.com - Gaza evacuations 70 percent complete - Aug 18, 2005 - It's so sad to see people being removed from their homes in Gaza. This is a big mistake by Sharon and I'm extremely doubtful that this will "reinvigorate the Israeli-Palestinian peace process". Israel earned this area during the Six-Day War and now they are being penalized? At least there is a compensation package and I hope it is fair. The bigger issue is that many people believe that this is truly God-given territory for Israel, no matter what the politicians say. This is just another mess within a big mess and Israel shouldn't give up ANYTHING until they have more security as a nation and the Palestinians stop talking out of both sides of their mouth about the right of Israel to exist.

The worst part about all this is that Hamas and similar groups are claiming a "Victory". Give me a break.
