Destroying settlers' homes, officials said at the time, would prevent them from falling into the hands of Palestinian militants rushing into areas vacated by the withdrawing Israeli military

Like Parasites the so called Palestinians will take whatever is left and turn it into waste. Sharon and all the Peace mongering monkeys know that the Palesites will come rushing in with Rockets to fire deeper into Israel and with an even great confidence they can win. After all after a few bombings they get freed prisoners and evacuated settlemets. A few more bombings and they will get the whole state of Israel.

Funny to see Sharon labelled a peace monkey. Interesting times.

Why don't they sell them to Palestinians? Better than wasting them.

[camas]

let them stand. they may want to move back someday.

Palestinians have been bitching since 1949 that some of their number were driven from their homes in what is now Israel by war.

Let them apply for these spots with full documentation for their previous homes. Might not get all of them housed but should help in the peace negotiations.

Apartments are cheaper than war.

It bothers me that Sharon is more concerned about what to do with the houses than what to do with the settlers. He's worried about where to dispose of the rubble, but not worried about where to dispose of the babies taken away from their mothers.

Hmmm... My teeny, weeny opinion and suggestion is to leave the houses intact in Gaza if they are not physically reinforced. Destroy them if they are.

But finish building the fence, continue to improve the fence from now on, without ceasing.

[familyop]

And BTW, that "suggestion" was from occupational experience with reinforcing and clearing "positions."

[Lijahsbubbe]

I wouldn't leave them jack. In fact, If forced to leave, I'd leave them the same presents they left in Joseph's tomb and the Church of Nativity.

<< However, Vice-Premier Shimon Peres, who advocates leaving the homes intact ... >>

.... Is a self-loathing socialist and has and has always had the same effect on Israel as would a whole army of "palestinian" homicide-bombers.

Let him and his fellow socialists pony up the money to buy the houses and infrastructure, take it, bank it -- and blow everything up anyway.

So-called "palestinians" want "'their land' back?"

Give it to them, if it must be lost, in the same shape as any land they have ever squatted and bemanured.
