51. No.
I'm saying you can't expect to see a fully functioning government overnight. And you can't expect it given that a large part of Palestinians society in Gaza is still controlled by Israel.

Yes, I do want a pullout of the West Bank and I'd like to see all settlements gone. Period. After that, it will be up to the Palestinians to make their way. You can't tie them down, limit their freedoms and choices and expect them to come out on top.

Look at the result of all of the meddling outsiders have had on Palestinians today? Many countries support one side or another and they fund them, help them and all it creates is a mess. The US is also guilty of this, not just other countries in the middle east. Right now the US is funding the PA - is that helping?
