They thought this would solve the peace problem but I hope you can clearly see they REALLY regret it. In Gaza Hamas has launched 10,000 rockets, mortars and grads since and in the west bank, it is a lot more quieter there but still anti-Israel. Israel is starting to take over the west bank which is great news for them and the west bank is also controlled by israel now.
HintI am against killing civilians or even terrifying them. However, compare the number of Israelis killed by these 10000 rockets(a number that counts on the one hand fingers) by the number of Palestinians killed by the Israelis (a number that counts by hundreds if not thousands in addition to those in Jails).Wiki User

Are the Israelis and the Palestinians fighting about Gaza?
It is important to note that the military/paramilitary conflict is between Israelis and Palestinians, not Jews and Palestinians since the Israeli Army contains more than just Jews. Israelis and Palestinians are still fighting because neither group has achieved their objective. The Israeli objective is to have a dominant state in the region, living in peace with its neighbors, and with borders that are secure. The Palestinian objective is to have an independent government, international relations, and freedom of movement for its inhabitants. Unfortunately, both of these objectives are greatly expanded by fanatics on both sides who see the only possible implementation of these ideals being one in which the other party cannot exist or exists in such a weakened and defeated state that there can be no real peace. This is why the conflict continues. To see the causes and desires fueling the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict in more detail, see the related question.
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.
