Maybe you're right....but that's only because the intent wasn't to reward anybody. Israel was using Gaza as a small test case to see how withdrawal would work on a wider basis. Hamas chose to see it as a "reward" for their previous military action, and use that as a propaganda tool to excuse more attempted violence.

I don't disagree at all. Hamas ruined a good thing, I was simply seeking to clarify the point that Israel never fully withdrew from the Gaza, and that I think you'd be hard pressed to find one Gazan who felt "rewarded" by the experience. Sorry if it came off in a weird way, but denying Hamas ' role in the fact it never occurred was certainly never the point of my post.

Your ability to create fantasy is truly remarkable. Read what I said. Where did I say Israel was wrong? Not everything has a slant.
I simply corrected a post. You have a lot of growing to do before you're ready to respectfully participate in threads regarding Israel I think. If you had read what I said, your understanding should have looked like this:

The end. Please. If you insist on reading my posts, just read them. I keep them simple, lay it out on the table, make a point of not hiding a lot of implications under the surface. If I wanted to say "That's why Israel is bad" then I'll just say it. If I don't say it, don't imply it. At that point you're just ignorantly arguing with yourself.
