“… The project, according to the draft, would cost a total of $112.1 billion over 10 years, though the U.S. would commit to being an “anchor” supporting nearly $60 billion in grants and guarantees on debt for “all the contemplated workstreams” in that time period.

Gaza could then self-fund many projects over the following years of the plan, the proposal projects, and eventually pay down its debt as improvements fuel local industry and the broader economy….”

It may be absurdist, pie in the sky Sci Fi, but at least it is more serious than Trump’s AI video of Trump, Bibi and Elon turning Gaza into a hedonistic Muslim Vegas with bearded belly dancers and gold statues of Trump everywhere.
 

“… Dozens of times since the truce went into effect on Oct. 10, Palestinians have been killed for crossing east, knowingly or not.

Palestinians say the continued bloodshed shows that Israel does not respect the cease-fire and is cavalier, at best, about the lives of Gazan civilians. The Israeli military says it has opened fire only in response to violations of the cease-fire, and that its rules of engagement permit targeting only people it perceives as threats.

… Palestinian officials say that 406 people have been killed since the cease-fire, including 157 children. That is nothing like the carnage of the previous two years of war, which began with the Hamas-led attack of Oct. 7, 2023, in which 1,200 people were killed, and which prompted an Israeli invasion of Gaza in which local health officials say 70,000 people have been killed — an average of hundreds each week.

But the mounting body count highlights the fragility of the truce, with a difficult-to-discern border, bitter enemies in proximity and Palestinian militants sometimes emerging from tunnels on the Israeli-held side and opening fire on Israeli soldiers….”
 


Israel and Egypt sign a $35 billion deal to supply Egypt with natural gas from the Leviathan gas field. About half of that will be profit to the state.

Next we are likely to see deployment of foreign troops, albeit inside the yellow line to start clearing for rehabilitation. Most likely Indonesian and Egyptian to initially source the ISF. Hamas and the Mullahs in Tehran will fight it.
