"When Israel pulled out of Gaza, the world waited to see what the Palestinians would make of it, as a prelude to their having a full state including the West Bank. The first thing the Palestinians did was smash all the greenhouses the settlers had built, instead of using them to aid their economy. Then they turned Gaza into a mini-terror state, launching a war against Israel that continues to this day. And now they wonder why life in Gaza is so wretched, when it could have flourished."
Please get your facts right - a few of the greenhouses were ransacked and stripped - many more were put into service and had a good crop the first year only to be stuck rotting because Israel would not allow the produce to be exported in a timely fashion. After that, there was no real incentive to spend the money to grow crops. |
