    Btw, besides Israel just wanting to eradicate Palistine, is this land valuable? It looks rather inhospitable.

      They will bulldoze moss of it flat for expansion. It’s incredibly colonial.

      They’re also land grabbing Syria, you know, besides that whole massive state sponsored genocide thing.

        Fair point. With enough money and marketing you can convince anyone to buy some waterfront property, even if crocodile invested.

      In Gaza there’s a lot of oil under the beachfront property - yes, it’s quite valuable land, which is part of the reason the US is helping Israel steal it.

      I may be wrong but I believe they’re using it as an Israeli suburbia. Maybe they have a different end game in mind though.
