Ariel Sharon Unilateral disengagement
In May 2003, Sharon endorsed the Road Map for Peace put forth by the United States, European Union, and Russia, which opened a dialogue with Mahmud Abbas, and announced his commitment to the creation of a Palestinian state in the future.
He has embarked on a course of unilateral withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, while maintaining control of its coastline and airspace. Sharon’s plan has been welcomed by both the Palestinian Authority and Israel’s left wing as a step towards a final peace settlement.
In an interview with top Sharon aide Dov Weisglass in the Israeli newspaper Haaretz on 8 October 2004, in which he explained Israel’s motivation for withdrawing from Gaza. He told the newspaper:
"Palestinian terrorism must end before a political process leading to a Palestinian state begins. Otherwise, the result would be a Palestinian state with terrorism. The Gaza withdrawal would allow Israel to delay negotiations, and a Palestinian state, until such time that their leadership abandons violence. The significance of the disengagement plan is the freezing of the peace process, and when you freeze that process, you prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state, and you prevent a discussion on the refugees, the borders and Jerusalem. Effectively, this whole package called the Palestinian state, with all that it entails, has been removed indefinitely from our agenda. And all this with authority and permission. All with a presidential blessing and the ratification of both houses of Congress. The disengagement is actually formaldehyde. It supplies the amount of formaldehyde that is necessary so there will not be a political process with the Palestinians."
Between 16 and 30 August 2005, Sharon controversially expelled 9,480 Jewish settlers from 21 settlements in Gaza and four settlements in the northern West Bank. Rabbi Yosef Dayan, placed an ancient curse on him known as the Pulsa diNura, calling on the Angel of Death to intervene and kill him. Israeli soldiers formally left Gaza on 11 September 2005 and closed the border fence at Kissufim.
Sharon was hospitalized on 18 December 2005, after suffering a minor stroke. Sharon returned immediately to work and suffered a hemorrhagic stroke on 4 January, the day before surgery. After two surgeries lasting 7 and 14 hours, doctors stopped the bleeding in Sharon’s brain, but were unable to prevent him from entering into a coma.
Sharon has undergone a series of subsequent surgeries related to his comatose state. He has remained in a long-term care facility since 6 November 2006. Medical experts indicate that his cognitive abilities have likely been destroyed by the stroke. He is in a persistent vegetative state with extremely low chances of recovery. On 27th Feb 2009 he turned 81, still comatose but in a stable condition.
Did God judge Sharon for splitting the land?
God warns anyone who divides the land, “I will gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. There I will enter into judgment against them concerning my inheritance, my people Israel, for they scattered my people among the nations and divided up my land”. Joel 3-2
Further strain was put on the process after Hamas won 2006 Palestinian elections. Although it offered Israel a number of longterm ceasefires and accepted the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative, Hamas has repeatedly refused to officially recognise Israel, to renounce violent resistance, or accept some agreements previously made by the Palestinian Authority. It has claimed that it is being held to an unfair standard and points out that Israel has not recognized a Palestinian state, renounced violence or lived up to all pledges it has made during previous negotiations. Hamas has always renounced the Oslo Accords. Land for peace, Israel gave up Gaza and West Bank for the promise of peace. But that did not stop the suscide bombers from killing innocent Israeli citizens. Nor has it stopped the rocket attacks from Gaza into Israel. The so called Palistinians were not content with the land they got. The Palistinan and Arab leadership has proclaimed again and again that “DRIVE ALL THE JEWS INTO THE SEA”. Everything wrong in the world today is the fault of Israel. Let’s tell the Iranians that we agree with them that Israel has no right to exist. That will solve all the world’s problems.
Mahmoud Abbas, when talking about 1948, said, The Arab armies entered Palestine to protect from the Palestinians from Zionist tyranny. When the Arabs came in to destroy Israel in 1948 they told the Arabs living in the land to get out because we are going to drive the Jew into the seas and when we are done you can have the homes of the Jews.
But instead some 570,000 Arabs were forced out of Israel at gun point by the 5 Arab armies, placed in ghettos similar to the ones the Jews lived in Eastern Europe and today they are called Palestinians.
100,000’s of Arabs said we don’t care; we are not leaving and stayed in Israel. Now numbering over 1 million and enjoy full citizenship in Israel and they have more rights then any other Arab person in any other Arab country. They have more freedoms and rights then their Arab brothers in Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia or Kuwait. They have voting rights and can hold political office. The only thing they can not do is serve in the Israeli military that is so they would not be put in the position of having to choose to fight their Arab brothers and fellow Muslims. They have every right an Israeli citizen has except the can’t join the military and put their life on the line for Israel.
Abbas’s statement exemplifies the barbaric treatment of Arabs against Arabs Muslims it is politically incorrect to talk about. As horrible as the Arabs have been to the Jews they have been equally horrible to other Arabs
Gaza was controlled by the PA or Fattah and ran by Yassar Arafat and because they were so corrupt the Fattah lost power when Arafat died leaving Mahmoud Abbas in control. After that the Fattah was voted out by Hamas and Abbas was been chased out of Gaza and is in the West Bank with no base for power. Hamas is now in power and is supported by Iran Sunni Muslims and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad supported by Iran. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has declared to wipe Israel and the Untied States off the face to the earth.
Hamas has fired over 200 rockets a day from school yards and hospitals.
The Israeli offensive in February of 2009 left 1300 Palestinians dead half of which were civilians the Palestinians used and human shields and 13 Israelis also died. Israel launched the war to halt years of rocket attacks on southern Israel and put an end to killing innocent Israeli civilians.
Now President Barack Obama wants to give 900,000,000.00 to the UN to distribute in Gaza to rebuild the schools, hospital and infrastructure. Just like they did after the 1967 war.
All of this has been propagated on a monstrous lie to the nations of the world to the media and it has been swallowed hook line and sinker by people around the world. This made up myth has been accepted as historical fact that the Jews have stolen Palestinian lands home and country.
Text books in Palestinian schools teach the Palestine war of May 14th1948 when Israel declared statehood the next day May 15th Five Arab nations came together to destroy this one day old state called Israel. This Arab war ended in a catastrophe, and they go on to say that the” Zionist gang stole Palestine and forcibly expelled people from their cities land and homes. And in its place established the pirate state of Israel” This is the bed rock of teaching all Palestinian children form High school on down that the Israeli stole their nation. Growing up being taught that myth creates understandable animosity and hatred that explains the present hostilities.
History records the facts no Arab state ever existed in Palestine prior to or after1948. There has never been a state called Palestine that is an Arab state. There has never been a Palestinian nation for the Jews to steal even if they wanted too. This conflict is not about stolen land it’s about extermination of the Jewish people.
