Motivation missing citation

> The motivation behind the disengagement was described by Sharon's top aide as a means of isolating Gaza and avoiding international pressure on Israel to reach a political settlement with the Palestinians.

This is citation-less. 47.144.2.223 (talk) 04:28, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

the lead does not require any citations (it is a summary of the body). The famous haaretz article is this one: https://www.haaretz.com/2004-10-06/ty-article/top-pm-aide-gaza-plan-aims-to-freeze-the-peace-process/0000017f-e56c-dea7-adff-f5ff1fc40000 DMH223344 (talk) 14:46, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Israel has a parliamentary system. It's government's ministers are composed of members of competing political parties who have joined the coalition but who ostensibly oppose selection of the positions that the coalition accepts. So one minister's comments aren't reflective of the intent of the coalition. You can see that very statement discussed in the contemporary, non-paywalled source here https://www.theguardian.com/world/2004/oct/07/israel
Saying that one minister said so so it is just isn't the truth in a coalition government. It's the equivalent of saying Ron Paul said end the Fed, so Mitt Romney's 2012 campaign ran on ending the Fed. (From a US perspective). Furthermore this take ignores the multitudes of evidence showing that the goals of the coalition were nominally ones of peace.
It's a poor rewite of history. 47.144.2.223 (talk) 06:10, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
