Immediately upon withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, the Palestinians voted in Hamas and used the territory as a platform to launch guerrilla warfare against Israeli citizens.

Your logic is flawed, in that the citizens of Gaza were already rewarded, and they responded with violence.
The 'Test Case' bestowed upon the Palestinian people (which is baloney), was a failure because.... they elected Hamas.

And so we get into the 'Israel must defend itself' rhetoric, and the connection between failing this 'test' and undergoing massive casualties is plainly made.
