We are told that the Israelis who live in the coastal areas of Israel are mostly solidly behind a forceful transfer of Jews out of Gaza first, and the rest of Judea and Samaria next. Many on the coast call themselves leftists. They have certain beliefs that appeasing Yasser Arafat's Palestinians by withdrawals and the transfer of Jews will make their lives easier, if not safer.
These are selfish Jews who have forgotten that the outer barriers of Jewish settlements are what have kept Muslim Arab terrorists from even greater access to the major coastal cities. Some terrorists have successively pulled off attacks there, but only a fraction of what is possible - if it weren't for the protection of the outlying settlements. The outer barrier is a veritable wall of settlers, soldiers, road patrols and checkpoints. This is a woven matrix of dedicated Jews, who make easy access to heavily populated areas of Israel difficult.
Should this outer barrier - those Jewish settlements defending them - be eliminated and replaced with dedicated Islamists, those comfortable Jews will begin to feel greater effects of daily terror. They will also be within range of longer distance, more accurate Kassam rockets once the Arab Muslims have made all of Gaza their international base of global terrorism.
Then, the 70% of Israel's population that lives on the coast would begin shouting for better protection and for the Israeli government and military to push the hostile Arab Muslims further away from their cities, buses, schools, restaurants, etc.
When the leftists gave the nation of Israel those insidious Oslo Accords and the agreements that followed them, handing over Israel's heartland territory to Arafat's Palestinian Authority, the resulting terror - now much closer in - seemed to have passed the Left by. They had entered a Faustian bargain with the devil, Arafat, and the cemeteries of murdered Jews grew by leaps and bounds. Having weakened Israel's defenses, they thought the gift of appeasement would be reciprocated. This reciprocation came in the form of intifadas and the license for Palestinians to murder Jews whenever and wherever, and in any horrific way, possible.
The leftists and the soft Jews of the coast are ready to sacrifice their fellow Jews if it will bring them a few more years of ephemeral safety. We have seen that wishful philosophy fail completely. Since Oslo was signed September 13, 1993, Arab Muslims have murdered more than 1,500 Jews (including about 45 Americans), wounded tens of thousands, some crippled for life. Now these same leftist Jews and the weak Jews of the cities hope to buy a few years of non-terror by betraying their Jewish brothers at the outer perimeters of Eretz Yisrael.
As the Osloids used secrecy to creep to the gates of the city and open them for the Palestinian Arab/Muslim terrorists, now they wish to open them further. To betray and sell out what should be seen as one's own family is as low as any Jew can sink.
Ariel Sharon has joined the Left in this war against his own people. He plans re-partition, transfer of Jews, giving the land, homes, farms, schools, infrastructure and water to Muslim Arab Jihadists, who have sworn to Allah that no matter what the Jews give up, it won't be enough. They swear on their religion to remove and eliminate every Jew they can lay their hands on.
We see it even now in Gaza, as the mix of Arab Muslim terrorists there have launched almost 5,000 rockets at Jewish settlements and at cities over the Green Line. Israelis can be exceedingly stupid when they create dream-like scenarios out of thin air, promising safety and peace, even as the Arabs chant "Allahu Akbar!" (Allah is Great) and "Itbach Al-Yahud!" (Kill the Jews) Perhaps many Jews are uneducable to danger and to the identity of their true enemies.
If Sharon succeeds in transferring the Jews out of their homes in Gaza, it will not be Judea and Samaria that follow. It will be Ashkelon, Ashdod, Haifa, Be'er Sheva, Tel Aviv and Haifa that will likely be targeted by increased terror and slowly melt away.
Sharon has unleashed terrible forces; even to the point of provoking civil war, which he blames on those men, women and children who simply do not want to leave their homes and see everything they have strived to build for 30 years given away to an implacable enemy. There is a question that can be asked of the Left and the city dwellers in the Dan region: are you ready to sacrifice fellow Jews because they are pejoratively called 'settlers', for whatever short term relief you think it will bring you personally?
8,500 Jews should not be uprooted and expelled from Gush Katif in the Gaza Strip on one man's faulty brainstorm. What will it say to the governments around the world, in countries where Jews live safely now, that Jews can be thrown out of their homes by their own Jewish government? Will any Jews be safe anywhere in the world if Sharon succeeds in betraying Israel's own sovereignty?
