  Gaza 15 August 2005  
Listen to this item
Why are so many young women settlers protesting against withdrawal?

The deadline for the withdrawal of Israeli settlers from Gaza passed today. The Israeli government has estimated that a third of the Gaza settlers may defy orders to leave, and evacuations will take place from Wednesday. 

A surprising number of the settlers protesting against withdrawal are young women. What has led these women to take a stand? And what will happen to the settler families once they arrive in Israel?
