Exactly backwards

A long piece at OpinionJournal trots out the tired claim that the Gaza withdrawal "failed utterly" and "produced the worst set of results imaginable."

As if.

The "worst set of results imaginable" would be any of the following:

(a) A Jewish minority in Israel
(b) A permanent occupation, or de facto apartheid

(de fac·to adv actual without being legally or officially established;
a·part·heid n A policy or practice of separating or segregating groups.)

(c) Israel renouncing the democratic form of government
(d) A permanent state of civil war with the Palestinians.

By leaving the territories the Jews will, by the grace of God, avoid all of that.
