Nobody did that, and the Gaza Strip is not part of Israel.
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.
There is no war between Gaza and Israel.
The conflict between Israel and Gaza was caused due to Hamas being elected into power in Gaza in 2005. In Hamas' charter, it calls for the destruction of the Jewish state (Israel). Israel and America, in trying to get the Palestinians to the negotiating table, mistakenly withdrew from Gaza as a goodwill gesture, but didn't expect Hamas to get elected. Hamas is the Palestinian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood, and as such vehemently opposed to any nation, anywhere in the world, which has any kind of rule other than Shari'ah (Islamic law). The conflict between Israel and Gaza is no different to the conflict and violence caused by Muslims in India, Nigeria, Kenya, Somalia, Thailand, the Philippines etc.
Israel attempts to protect herself against terrorist organizations. Gaza is left alone by Israel, except when the terrorists in Gaza attack Israel. For example, today terrorists in Gaza launched over 50 missiles into Israel. When this happens, Israel usually tries to destroy the missile factories.
The usual in Israel; Judaism trying to survive, and Islam complaining when Israel doesn't feed the Gaza Strip (they were firing rockets into Israel from the Gaza Strip).
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.
As of December 31st 1999 Israel maintained control of the Gaza Strip and a security corridor of Southern Lebanon. Israel has since withdrew from Gaza and Southern Lebanon. The Sinai was captured from Egypt in 1967 and returned after the Camp David Accords. The territories of the Golan Heights captured from Syria in 1967 and the West Bank from Jordan of the same year remain under Israeli control.
There is currently no war in progress involving Israel and the inhabitants of Gaza.
