Why doesn't Israel hand Gaza to the Egyptians?
There are several reasons why this cannot happen 1) Israel cannot just 'hand Gaza to the Egyptians' as it is currently under Palestinian/Hamas rule. Israel disengaged from the Gaza strip in September 2005, and it has been under Palestinian rule since then. First under Fatah, and subsequently Hamas. 2) The Gaza strip is not an occupied territory that belongs to Egypt 3) The Egyptians do not want to control the Gaza strip 4) The Palestinians want an independent country that include TheGaza strip and the West Bank and they don't want to be ruled by the Egyptians
What does Gaza have that Israel does not have?
A Hamas Government.Pretty much everything else you can find in Gaza exists in Israel.The reason that Israel is fighting against Gaza has to do with the belligerent attitude and activities of its government. Israel does not want the Gaza Strip to acquire the territory or the people.
Why do the Israelis and the Palestinians both want the Gaza Strip?
The Israelis believe it is rightfully theirs according to the Biblical land of Israel, but the UN-recognized border goes outside it, so the Palestinians want to have it as their own nation. The previous opinion is incorrect. Israelis do not actually want the Gaza Strip, specifically because it is NOT part of the Biblical Land of Israel (Gaza is recognized to be part of the Philistine State in Biblical Times). The reason that there is conflict in Gaza is that Israel believes that the regime in Gaza is hard-set on the destruction of Israel. Palestinians do want the Gaza Strip, as explained by the previous opinion, so that they can have their own country.
What is the Hamas views on land for peace?
they do not want land for peace between israel and palestinians because they want full power of the gaza strip and nothing to do with israel.
How did the Gaza Strip become Israel?
city of southwest Asia in the Gaza Strip, a narrow coastal area along the Mediterranean Sea adjoining Israel and Egypt. The territory was part of the British mandate for Palestine (1917-1948), passed to Egypt in 1949, and was occupied by Israel in 1967. Palestinian autonomy was promised in the 1979 Israeli-Egyptian peace treaty, and limited autonomy was granted in a 1993 Israeli-Palestinian accord. The city of Gaza was one of the five major Philistine city-kingdoms. Population: 479,000.
Is the Gaza strip owned by Israel?
It belongs to Palestine. In June 1967, the the Gaza Strip was captured by Israel as a result of the Six-Day War. In 2005, Israel withdrew all of its military personnel and civilians from the Gaza Strip and left the territory under Palestinian control. The Gaza Strip belongs to no other country than Israel. While Israel may not have army boots on the ground there. Israel controls the airways and sea ways therefore is considered responsible for the well being of the people living there, alongside the United Nations and the terrorist or resistance militant organization Hamas. If the Palestinian state ever does get established and joins as an official member of the United Nation then the Gaza Strip will belong to Palestine as Israel does not want it.
Which three areas are occupied by Israel?
Although this is heavily disputed, the areas most often disputed are The West Bank, Gaza Strip and the Golan Heights. The West Bank was previously Transjordan, or sometimes referred to as Cisjordan. The Gaza Strip was captured in the 1967 Six Day War and remained Israeli when Egyptian officials did not want to take control over it as part of the 1979 Israeli-Egyptian peace treaty. The Golan Heights were captured from Syria during the same war.
What two areas do the Palestinians want for their own independent state?
The Gaza Strip and the West Bank.
What 25-mile territory has been a source of dispute between Israel and its neighbors for many years?
The GAZA STRIP is a 25-mile territory that is the site of much violence between Israel and its Palestinian inhabitants, but it is not really "a source of dispute", since Israeli authorities do not actually want power over the land. The reason for the fighting is that Gaza is controlled by a militant organization, Hamas, which has an intractable vendetta against Israel and so, Israel is constantly engaged in damage control to protect its civilians from Hamas-led attacks both present and planned.
What does Israel want from Gaza?
To be left alone and not continually attacked from Gaza. Today, terrorists in Gaza launched over 50 missiles into Israel. The Israeli people now occupy less than 10% of the land promised to them and are still being forced off what little they have left.
Between which two countries is Gaza?
Israel, and Egypt. It used to be part of Egypt, but they didn't want it back, so Israel is stuck with it and the problems associated with it.
What do the Palestinians want to do with the land of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip?
A number of Palestinians would like to create an independent Palestinian State on the lands of the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. This aspiration is seen as legitimate by the United Nations, which currently recognizes the early elements of this state as the State of Palestine and previously recognized it as the Palestinian Authority.However, the majority of Palestinians who support the full independence of the State of Palestine do not believe that the territory of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip are sufficient and lay claim to all or part of the current State of Israel as a longer-term ambition.
