Egypt had control of Gaza from 1948 to 1967.
Israel captured Gaza during the 6 Day War. Remember that one?
Israel left Gaza in 2005

A total of 38 years.

When Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005 - twenty years ago, they left infrastructure and assets that were demolished by angry Palestinians. They squandered those assets which would make them less dependent.

Netanyahu and his minions have the desire to rid Gaza of Palestinians, not "Israel." Someone should
do a poll in Israel about that before making such claims.

I give a fuck about Hamas, and I'm quite sure that there are many many posters here that" give a fuck" about Hamas.
