I believe that anyone willing to live in peace with their neighbors should be allowed to stay in their homes. That includes the Jews in Gaza. It is lunacy to say 8 thousand Jews cannot stay in Gaza but that 100 thousand more Arabs can come to Israel.

Are the Jews in Israel killing Israeli Arabs?

"Peace" is a two-way street that only exists when BOTH sides want Peace. That situation exists between Israeli Arabs and Israeli Jews within Israel but it does not exist in Gaza.

In 1989, before the killer Hurricane Hugo hit South Carolina, the State of South Carolina ordered a mandatory evacuation of the barrier islands around Charleston. Many homeowners refused stating that they had a right to stay in their own homes.

After the Hurricane Hugo hit, the Police and Fire Departments were flooded with calls from these same people demanding that policemen and firemen risk their lives to go out in the middle of the hurricane and save them.

The response was, "Sorry. No. You had your chance for safety and you refused."

The Gaza residents want the "right" to live where they please, yet they demand that the soldiers of the IDF risk their lives to assure them that right.
