From Gush Katif to the Rebuilt Ganei Tal 

JL;DR SUMMARY Moti and Hana Sender, former residents of Gush Katif, have rebuilt their lives and livelihood in the re-established moshav of Ganei Tal after being uprooted during the 2005 expulsion.

But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
