Israel's Mistake is the Settlements
Reader comment on item: [Is Israel] Winning by retreating?

Submitted by Juan Cienaguas (United States), May 23, 2002 at 14:32

Daniel -
Israel's BIG mistake is building those settlements in the West Bank and Gaza!

How on earth could they have been so misguided and remain so arrogant to continue building these settlements which are now stark concrete barbed wire forts among the occupied natives and think that they, the natives will get used to them?!?
