Re: Israel, Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran … War

How would the tourists manage to get into Gaza with the Israel’s blockade in place?

I think these Israeli actions may have diminished any ability to create a "tourist paradise"…

According to a cable from the US embassy in Tel Aviv dated November 3, 2008 -- obtained by WikiLeaks and posted online by Norwegian daily Aftenposten -- Israeli officials told US diplomats of their intention to strangle the economy of Gaza.

"As part of their overall embargo plan against Gaza, Israeli officials have confirmed ... on multiple occasions that they intend to keep the Gazan economy on the brink of collapse without quite pushing it over the edge," the secret cable, posted online in its original version, read.
