Why Gaza
Hello all,
Why did they choose a Gaza "strip"? It seems like usually when you carve out part of a country to make another country, you want something attached to a border. That way, if they piss you off, you can point your guns at them and start killing them. Having a strip of land totally contained inside your own country sounds like a bad plan.

Anyone know?

The Gaza "strip" is the southwest corner of Israel. It borders Egypt and the Mediterranean. Here's a map to get your bearings.
