A ministerial committee on Wednesday approved an additional 500 million shekels ($120 million) for former residents of Gush Katif who were evicted from their homes during the Gaza disengagement of 2005. Politicians criticized the move, by questioning why it took so long. They also criticized the promise which the government had made to establish permanent housing for the evacuees – many of whom are living in temporary shelters.

How about giving Gush Katif back? The arabs have destroyed every viable means to earn a proper living. Forget compensation…gives us our homes back.
Interesting timing, though I’ll believe it when I see it.
And what about giving them a decent place to live and paying for therapists to help them and their children recover from PTSD and other mental-health issues that can and did come up after they were expelled and uprooted?
