Our state of confusion -Shmuel Katz
The peace-at-any-price brigade is back in business.
Everything that's happened since disengagement illuminates a great divide within Israel between the people who believed the Arabs when they declared that their aim was the destruction of Israel and those who claimed, in spite of three generations of hard evidence to the contrary, that the Arabs only wanted a slice of land in order to make peace - and that consequently Israel should give it to them.
What followed the abandonment of Gaza was of course a new and emphatic vindication of the the Right in the genuineness of the Arab threats. The Arabs reacted to the Gaza operation exactly as the Right had said they would.
As for the Left, its political creed was torn to pieces.
