Palestinian Logic

Israel has a plan to leave Gaza. Raji Sourani, director of the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights has a few thoughts on the subject.

"In simple words," said Sourani, "nobody in Israel wants Gaza -- Left or Right. If this plan is applied, then it means the occupation will continue, meaning we will have no control over our destiny.

So there you have it.

If the Israelis stay in Gaza it will of course be occupied territory.

But if they leave it will be no different. Gaza will be occupied territory.

This is very subtle.

Perhaps what he is saying is that the wrong people are occupying Gaza.

I could go with that.
