Moving is not a traumatic experience

Published on August 16, 2005 By Ionolast In Current Events

Watching the TV coverage of the Israeli pullout from Gaza, I'm amazed that some of those people are putting up such a fight just because they have to move. Screaming and kicking, they have phony outrage. Boo hoo. Poor babies. Playing to the cameras, they want their 15 minutes of fame. 2/3 of the settlers have already left willingly and peacefully. Those who are refusing to leave are just assholes.

You are absolutely right! Most of the one you are seeing on TV don't even live there... they are professional aggitators that came in strictly for publicity purposes.

I have no sympathy for someone who takes someone else's land by force.

I could understand it if it was an ancestral homeland, but these are recent (in the last 30+ years) settlers!

Yeah. They should be happy about going back to their homeland.

The settlers who are refusing to leave are making fools of themselves.

There are Palestinians who are living in horrible poverty because they were forced out of their homes at gunpoint.
