If you know enough history to be familiar with the "previous ones" then you know that that they could have gotten half of Israel's territory in 1947 but instead they (the Arab nations) preferred to go to war to take it all. And they failed. And then again in 68, same story. BTW Israel has repeatedly offered to transfer control of Gaza to Egypt, the Egyptians have no interest in helping them out in any way. It's more expedient for all the Arab world that Gaza remains a festering sore in Israel's side - of course at the expense of the poor Palestinians who are stuck there. Even now, Egypt is unwilling to open it's border for Palestinians who wish to flee the area. But it's obviously more fashionable to blame Israel for creating a "concentration camp" even after all of that. No-other country in the region is willing to lift a finger to help them, yet you expect the most from the country which Gaza has sworn to destroy and attacks at every opportunity?
