In 2005, then-Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon decided to pull 7,000 Israeli settlers, as well as Israeli troops, out of Gaza.
He cited disengaging Israel from the security risks of trying to hold on to Gaza.
However, one wonders if in the long term a plan to do to Gaza what Israel is doing today was always to be the reality? That’s why 7000 Israeli settlers were moved to the safety of Israel as they couldn’t do to the West Bank or East Jerusalem what they are currently doing to Gaza
Israel disengaged from Gaza in 2005, but has conducted five major wars since, killing thousands of Palestinians.
