Haaretz, 1
July 2007:
There is a growing consensus in Israel that a withdrawal from the
West Bank is no longer possible….The reason is obvious: Israel …does
not want Qassam rockets against Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and Ben-Gurion
International Airport. Most Israelis assume, in view of the
experience from Lebanon and the Gaza Strip, that any territory that
will be evacuated will become a launching pad for rocket attacks
against Israel. |

Jerusalem Post, March 19 2008:
Israelis opposed to further withdrawals
