Sharon's Gamble
No one in the press (except Caroline Glick in Jerusalem) seems willing to report on the legality and morality of the Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's decision to force 10,000 Israeli citizens out of their homes in Gaza in order to turn their land over to the Palestinians, who case has been pressed by a murderous band of terrorists for the past 40 years. (The Jews in Gaza built on land never occupied by Arabs, but, in most cases, empty desert.) Sharon and Bush are gambling that the pullout will provide security and put pressure on the Palestinians to adopt democratic reforms. Let's hope that they are right. If not, 10,000 families lost their homes and a nation gave into terror for nothing...
