But if the idea of further expansion is a yes, then it is probable that the idea of pulling back is a no.
Kind of a boolean short-circuit a-la the <cfif> tag.

I'm for peace. Would I call for giving up all of Gaza or other places for
peace if it was true peace? Yes. What they're talking about is not peace,
it's retreat. There's no control over Hamas or any of the othes in Gaza who
attack Israel EVERY SINGLE DAY.
Should towns grow if they need to? Yes. The world is always looking at
Israel's growth yet the Arab building is well over 10 times that. No one is
saying they should limit their growth. Should there be a settlement created
for every terrorist attack that takes place? Yes. Maybe it'll teach the
terrorists to stop or lose everything (yeh right). The question your asking
is not about expansion or settlement, it's about giving land to the
Palestinians for a state.
And this is all besides the various points of Israel only being 1/5th of the
Palestine mandate land, Israel winning the land in defensive wars and the
land being disputed due to it never being a sovern nation, there never being
a Palestinian state, etc. Remember that before Israel, the rulers of that
area were the British who got it from the Ottoman empire who got it from the
Mamluks who got it from.....

So Michael,
Are you then for the continued expansion and settlement of areas in the
Gaza, the West Bank, and the Golan Heights?
Should there be even one more house, home, building or complete settlement
built on those lands?

Yes, I've always felt the media were zealots.
If you mean the people in Israel who are against an undemocratic,
non-government backed, one sided expulsion order, well I don't think they're
zealots.
In all truth, I hear "crimes against humanity" stated AGAINST Israel all the
time. This is one of the first where some Jews use it against ethnic
clensing of a people from a region. Any movement of all people from a region
whether due to expulsion, killing or anything else falls under ethnic
cleansing and no one seems to care about it when Jews are those being
cleansed. Know of any Jews in Iran? Iraq? Syria? Egypt? Any Arab country?
Why because they were all cleansed from Arab land. Now it's sharon who wants
to cleanse Gaza of Jews.
Ahh good old fashioned zealots: always ready to inform us of wanton
"crimes against humanity", such as eating certain foods, fornication,
the utterance of certain words or phrases, the playing of certain
musical chords or the moving of people from one location to another.
One begins to wonder why people do anything at all since there's a
good chance that any given action might be a crime against humanity.
Far be it for them to reserve the term for such trivialities as
genocide.
