hi,i have been wondering this for the last week especially when you see the pictures of complete blitzing of buildings and amenities.Im no expert but im guessing more buildings etc in the coming weeks will be destroyed just how will Gaza be rebuilt how can they afford it.

Gaza is very poor i think,could it be a way to get better facilities and have control over their own utilities etc rather than Israel deciding or will Israel move in and take it for their own people,what happens to the palestinian's ??

Like i said i dont have a great knowledge but every time i see the buildings bombed i wonder

Such a young population.

I’ve had my arse handed to me on a plate previously on here for wondering why people living in such conditions choose to have so many children.

Thought you'd give it another go?

Took me 20 seconds of googling.

Saudi reasons to make peace is for their own stability and economy. There making pretty neutral and sensible noises at the moment. So areca lot of other Arab leaders and the PO. Hamas, Iran and Lebanon are not much liked really as they cause unrest in other States. Nobody in the Arab world will cry much at Hamas being gone apart from a few now outsider regimes.

Saudi prince slams Hamas, Israel and the West

Prince Turki al-Faisal's comments are a rare Arab voice of criticism of Hamas's actions.

Google disaster capitalism. There are always vultures waiting in the wings to take advantage of any natural or man-made disaster.

Maybe those Hamas leaders who are billionaires and millionaires could actually invest some of their suspiciously-gained wealth in Gazan infrastructure.

What break up the property portfolios, I don't think so.

More like they will run off if they haven't done already and hide out somewhere like Qatar that will not arrest them etc.

I really think the Arafat properties in London his daughter inherited should be taken back and the money used for the Palestinians as intended before he stole it. The same goes for property in the west that other Hamas or Palestinians leaders have brought. The Arabs should do the same really. It wouldn't be enough to totally rebuild or anything but would be billions.

I don't think Hamas thought they would manage to kill as many or take so many hostage. However I do think they know a big reaction would happen. Just know where near this big. Iran/Hamas were getting marginalised by some of the other Arab states stating to make peace with Israel. The attack happened the day before Saudi were due to do a big agreement and hand shake either Israel. Saudi wants peace in the middle east and so do many Arabs states that. Peace is good for their own stability, economy and tourism. Iran/Hamas needed to do something to disrupt this Saudi meeting and cause other Arab states to reject Israel. So they did what they did but definitely didn't think Israel would go this far. Trappings of their own mission being to successful and now lots of people will continue dieing on both sides.

Saudi don't give a shit about peace, they want to be brethren with the powers that be.

The Israeli Defence Minister has stated their intention for “Israel to cease responsibility for life in the Gaza Strip” and sever all ties in the region, with “the establishment of a new security reality for the citizens of Israel” after Hamas is defeated. The Israelis don’t want Gaza, they never did.

Traumatised young lads... they won't forget

Nearly 50% of Gazan children have chronic PTSD. Just saying that the last few recorded terrorist attacks by lone white males were 'explained' by saying they had mental health issues.

I often wonder what Hamas thought would happen after they committed those atrocities. Do you think they knew Israel would retaliate as they have? And if so, why do what they did in the first place? It just doesn't make sense.

There are Gazans in Gaza providing trauma help right now to children.

That's not to diminish the trauma experienced, at all, but just to say it's not something that needs to be "started", because it's been going for years. Sadly.

I absolutely hate how there is no recognition from the Israeli government and their supporters that children who have grown up in the conditions in Gaza are going to grow up as traumatised individuals with PTSD and they will be hell bent on revenge as the have NOTHING. Absolutely NOTHING.

when you have nothing to lose, when you lose all hope then you are going to make different decisions.

i think the same

I have mentioned on a different thread that the children in Gaza will need trauma therapy centres build as part of any rebuild plans. It isn't something mist people can bounce back from. I have a friend that fled a war zone and came to the UK as a little girl. She is in her 30s and still has theory occasionally now.

Trulywonderful · 21/10/2023 21:44

Judging my the handshaking of various leaders that have been meeting and speeches that have been made I think:

The PO will be in charge to start with and govern. As Palestinians have rioted and objected to any Taliban style laws that Hamas tried to bring in eg forced hijab and modest dress, the PO bea national party rather than a Islamic one will probably suit them better for now. Eventually elections need to be held. However rebuilding and establishing normality is the most serious thing at the moment.

The UN and aid agencies will build utility facilities as quick as possible. Plus make sure the food chain is robust. Saudi will help rebuild and develop greatly. Possibly eventually business opportunities via Saudi will build Gazans own economy. You never know they may even have a tourist industry of their own in the future like a lot of Arab countries

If Egypt still refuse to police things the UN may have too. Jordan or Saudi could get involved in that but I think like Egypt they probably won't.

Lebanon will still continue to fire rockets at Israel and will become worse than Gaza. The Arabs world will be even more fed up with them than they are now. Similar to there feelings about Hamas the violence in the middle east is not good for economy or tourism etc.

Israel has refused to allow Gaza to rebuild the last countless number of times they've bombed them. They won't allow building materials in.

Unfortunately I have to agree with the previous posters who've said that the plan is to level Gaza and anyone in it who's in the way in order to steal the land and plant yet more illegal settlers and make it part of Israel.

Outrageous war crimes happening before our very eyes and supported by UK, US and the EU.

By all accounts Israel is planning on incorporating it in to Israel. Apparently it’s a prime sea front location!
