The US ambassador to Israel understands why expulsion of Jews from Judea/Samaria (and Gaza) could lead to a civil war:

Privately and off the record, US Ambassador David Friedman gave a pessimistic assessment of issues surrounding a possible peace deal with the Palestinians to a group of officials from the Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish American Organizations, according to a Channel 10 News report Monday.

“We do not want to raise expectations about the chances of reaching a peace agreement too much. We are realistic. We want a peace agreement, but we know that this would not destroy Hezbollah or ISIS,” he reportedly said, while adding, “In any case, we don’t believe that threatening to pressure Israel is helpful.”

He came down hard on the Palestinian Authority, according to a few attendees at the briefing, saying, “They have not shown that they are capable of building institutions that will allow them to live in peace with their neighbors.”

But even if a deal was in the offing, he was not sanguine about the chances that Israeli society would survive intact, according to the report. The possibility of a mass refusal to follow orders to evict Jews from their homes “worries the Israeli government,” he reportedly said. “The command echelon in the IDF is going more and more to the national religious [sector]. These are people who feel duty-bound to this land as land given to them by God,” he added, saying it was his opinion that “the expulsion of hundreds of thousands of settlers could lead to a civil war in Israel.”

It's entirely possible, and something we don't need, so neither the left nor right-wing politicians should do anything to cause disaster.
