OK, lets take your position. Forget the past. Israel is right now, at this very moment, removing their citizens from Gaza. They have made a move to give all of Gaza to the Palestinians. Without looking at the past, lets look towards the future and watch what the Palestinians do with this. Ignore Hamas saying that resistance works so lets go on (paid for by the UN). Ignore the explosive belt found today, the sniper rifle yesterday, the people with guns arrested at checkpoints. Ignore all of that. This very second is where we count from. Israel is at this second pulling out. Lets see.
