They don't like their neighbors, so they'll just build this Berlin Wall-like barrier across their neighbors' land. After all, those settlers who left Gaza can't be expected to resettle in, say, Israel, can they?

JERUSALEM, Aug. 24 - Israeli officials confirmed Wednesday that the government had issued orders to seize West Bank land needed to extend the separation barrier around the largest Jewish settlement, Maale Adumim, and link it to Jerusalem.
The Palestinian leadership said the developments confirmed its fears that Israel would try to use the Gaza withdrawal, and the international good will it has generated, to consolidate its hold on the large settlement blocs in the West Bank. Israel evacuated the last of nearly 9,000 Jewish settlers from Gaza on Monday, and cleared out two West Bank settlements on Tuesday.
"We wanted the day after the Gaza withdrawal to be a day of hope and of reviving the peace process," said Saeb Erekat, the chief Palestinian negotiator. "But this is a signal that Israel intends to pre-empt and prejudge issues that are supposed to be
negotiated."
