With all the hoopla around the upcoming vote on the so-called “disengagement” plan, Zvi Bar’el makes some important points.
“However, an illusion is developing before our very eyes and it would be best to dispel it immediately. It’s called the “disengagement plan.” It is supposedly the start of a political solution, it is supposedly the key to the defense of the western Negev, and it is supposedly the end of the Greater Israel ideology. It looks serious, there are dates for implementation and evacuation, there is already talk of compensation payments, some parties have even left the government over the plan, and a national unity government is about to be established in its honor. But what about security?”
