Is the Forcible Removal of Israelis from Gaza Unprecedented?

I did not take you on the original challenge but I have to respond to the subsequent one. Yes. The forcible removal of Israelis from Gaza is precedented. In 1982 Israel did the same thing with Yamit and the settlements in Sinai. They forcibly removed the Jewish inhabitants from their legal homes and raised the homes to the ground. ONLY IN ISRAEL!
