Sharon’s Gaza maneuver

From The American Thinker:

The withdrawal of Israeli settlements from the Gaza strip is proceeding as well as could be hoped given the circumstances. Most Americans cannot even imagine the trauma of having their families uprooted and sent elsewhere, so many have seen it as another retreat in the face of terrorism. But the Israeli government’s order for its Jewish settlers to leave Gaza is not about surrendering to the forces of terror at all. It is a sound tactical play in the face of a changing enemy, and a maneuver that we would expect from an old fighter such as Ariel Sharon.
