28. another teaching moment…check out the definition of agreement
Tue Oct 29, 2013, 04:13 PM
Oct 2013

there were greenhouses, there were houses, there were buildings, agricultural land, water systems…

since either you don't know, prefer not to know i shall teach:

greenhouses at first were discussed to be destroyed, and agreement was reached, where they would be purchased, left intact and some of the settlers were going to teach the gazans to use them. That is called an agreement. Water systems to those greenhouses were also left intact, the homes were flattened as the PA didn't want them, that too was part of the discussions between the PA and Israel, which led to a "AGREEMENT"

The kassams suddenly stopped being fired, despite the hundreds of israelis crowded in small areas. Obviously there was an AGREEMENT with the locals not to try to kill them. Whether or not Sharon threatened them with killing their children i don't know, but an agreement was reached, hence there was no firing, which started up the day the settlers left. (agreement ended).

See how that works..when two groups discuss what to do about something and agree upon it, its called an agreement, there is nothing in the definition about who is the stronger or weaker, nor does it requires a ceremony.

the events and the news of the time, were very clear.
