yeah he is a survivor and the settlements were just a disposable tool that were done to put pressure on the gazan's and to appease some stupid and un-savvy people on his own side

By placing settlements such as Netzrim in in the strip he can place a strangelhold on the Palestinians there with relatively few troops. Thier have been IDF studies saying it would take almost two divisions to provide the equivalent effect of Netzarim.
