Israeli Defense Minister: Israel Will Help Rebuild Gaza If Hamas Disarms
(Ynet News) Elior Levy - In an interview published Monday in the Palestinian daily Al-Quds, Israeli Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman outlined an alternative reality for Gaza. "There are extremely radical elements in Gaza who have the destruction of Israel at the top of their priorities. But I want to be clear: if they make the decision to stop digging tunnels, smuggling arms and firing rockets at us, we will be the first investors in the rehabilitation of Gaza. We will be the first to invest in a maritime trading port, an airport and an industrial zone. Gaza could one day be the new Hong Kong or Singapore. Hamas invests more than NIS 100 million in military infrastructure instead of in health and education."
