It seems Tony Blair wants a piece of the Gaza Riviera. How will the president and Bibi about Tony horning in on their profits?
Tourist resorts and tech hubs abound, all largely staffed (presumably) by cheap, migrant labour. According to a TBI document seen by the FT, the near-total destruction of Gaza has “created a once-in-a-century opportunity to rebuild [the strip] from first principles . . . as a secure, modern prosperous society”.
In May, the government blocked all questions from members of parliament on how British military bases, particularly in Cyprus, are being used to support Israel’s operations in Gaza.
When DeclassifiedUK published a report on some of those operations, the British media — with the exception of Scotland’s The National — completely ignored its findings. The same goes for the more than 500 surveillance flights the RAF has carried out over Gaza, in the service of the IDF’s fighter bombers, since December 2023; the mainstream media have not carried out a single investigation into their extent, impact or legal status.
The vision, outlined in a slide deck titled The Great Trust, was created by a group of Israeli businessmen with support from consultants at Boston Consulting Group (BCG).
BCG’s plan assumed that at least 25 percent of Palestinians would leave “voluntarily”, with most never returning. It remains unclear whether Palestinians would have any choice in the matter, but the proposal has been widely condemned as ethnic cleansing of the territory’s indigenous population.
H3ll no, the Palestinians will have ZERO say and ZERO % of the profits. They are nonpersons.
