Some believe that it bears similarity to the forced removals conducted by the former Apartheid regime of South Africa but differs in that Apartheid was symmetrical with each group having its own area in which members of other groups were forbidden to reside. Under Land for Peace, evacuation is only performed on the Jewish populations and only Jews are forbidden from residing in certain areas.
