== Commemoration, Documentation and Protests in the Aftermath == Following the Disengagement, museums and activities for consciousness change among the public were established. Rabbi Sholom Ber Wolpo initiated the establishment of the Gush Katif Museum in Jerusalem. The museum contains extensive information about Jewish settlement in the Gaza region from ancient times until the Disengagement. The purpose of establishing the museum was to prevent the recurrence of a similar withdrawal in the future. The Gush Katif settlers established the Gush Katif Center for documenting and commemorating the Gush Katif settlements and the disaster of the Disengagement, located in the settlement of Nitzan. Shortly after Ariel Sharon initiated the plan, he suffered a stroke. He lay in a coma for about eight years until his passing on 10 Shevat 5775. Following the Second Lebanon War, Rabbi Sholom Ber Wolpo initiated a campaign called "We Told You So" during which he distributed one million informational booklets in Israeli press against the Convergence and Disengagement plans. He also launched a campaign called "There is Justice and there is a Judge" in which he published pictures of those responsible for implementing the Disengagement plan, claiming that everyone who participated in that plan was punished from Heaven. Those who participated in the Disengagement plan should retract, ask forgiveness from the expelled, and declare they will not repeat such actions. On the other hand, there were Chassidim who were precise in the Rebbe's words over the years, that we should not make Heaven's calculations for others.
