The unrest illustrated the weakness of Palestinian security forces and underscored concerns about their ability to control growing chaos in Gaza. The Israeli pullout is widely seen as a test for Palestinian aspirations of statehood.

I predict that in five years the area will look even worse than it does today. If the Palestinians created a state, they'd have to start taking responsibility for themselves and their condition. I see no evidence that they're interested in that.
