You don't know anything about history.

They will not leave. They will hunker down and survive. Hope for better days. Conquered people have done this for all of history. Hell, Jews have done this exact thing over millenia, for them survival itself is success, it's the bedrock of so many of their celebrations. Ironically, this it seems is a lesson they might end up passing to the Palestinians.
