I really need to come up with a shorter headline. Anyway, veteran Haaretz reporter Akiva Eldar has an excellent piece on the faulty reasoning of settler opposition to Sharon's disengagement plan.
Eldar, who is known for his left-wing views, argues (persuasively in my opinion) that the logic settlers are using to reject the right of Israel's democratically elected government to evacuate Jews from the territories closely resembles that used by Muslim clerics when a Palestinian leader appears willing to compromise on the "right of return."
