The international donor conference, which starts today in Sharm esh Sheikh, Egypt, pledged $5.2 billion to Gaza “reconstruction.” Hamas has estimated the damage to be less than one percent of that amount, in just tens of millions of dollars.
As usual, Arab donors will eventually renege on their promises, but the EU and US will pay their dues, for a total of $1.5 billion.
IDF punished Hamas voters with considerable destruction. Reconstruction aid removes the punishment, and therefore encourages Gazans to support Hamas. The pompous Gaza reconstruction conference, attended by all the world’s powers, contrasts markedly with the international silence on rocket attacks from Gaza.
During the conference, Palestinians continued to fire at Israeli population centers. One Kassam rocket struck in the backyard of a Sderot home. What would be the world’s reaction if rockets were landing in the backyards of Californian homes?
Palestinians receive international funding while they attack Jewish civilians daily, and the funding is entirely disproportional to Gaza’s damage. The logical conclusion is that the world pays them to fight Jews.
It makes my blood boil!
Why give aid to the palestinians when they just use it for more weapons to use against the jewish nation. It mostly doesn`t seem to go to helping their people! Then the jews are blamed for not helping them. What a crazy world and how much lies and deception in the media!!
