In 2005, Israel decided to disengage from the Gaza Strip, handing it over to the Palestinians in hopes of fostering a peaceful Middle East.

Unfortunately, this decision proved to be a significant mistake. After 20 years of violent Hamas rule, the Strip became overrun with terrorists, weapons, and even more radical Palestinians than before.

Israelis were forced from their beloved homes to appease the Palestinians and the international community. However, after months of liberating Gaza from Hamas, Israelis can once again dance in the synagogues they once called theirs.

This is a Beit knesset (synagogue) in Gaza which used to be part of the Jewish community in Netzer and this is the first time that Jews have prayed in it in 19 years since the disengagement

What a massive mistake that disengagement was! pic.twitter.com/xc4NuapbRn
