There are different groups of settlements. The ones along the Jordan were set up by the government as a security border. The ones south of Jerusalem just over the Green Line are mostly inhabited by people who came for cheaper housing. The ones sprinkled all through the territories have the extremists in them. Barak's offer at Taba offered to give back the last group, comprising 80% of the settlements and 20% of the settlers. If there were an agreement, the settlers might resist, but they would be evacuated. Do you know who dismantled the settlements in the Sinai when it was handed back to Egypt? Ariel Sharon.
