Is Gaza really as devastated as the media tell us?

Answer 1

Arab and some Western media assure us that "Palestinian Arabs have no homes because their homes were bombed by Israeli aircraft, and they have to live in tents, without water, electricity, without schools and clinics. However, a glance at the international reports will reveal quite different picture.

There ARE homes in Gaza. Their number ONLY IN URBAN GAZA is 58526. Not bad for the population of 409000 who live in Urban Gaza city; 4 inhabitants in a house of 85 -100 square meters on average.

And they are not "destroyed", you know. They are looking quite fine and solid.

And in Rural Gaza city, the situation is even better. There are 1343 households- for 8864 inhabitants.

But in the refugee camps, Arabs tell us… In Gaza refugee camp, there are 13618 residential houses- for the population of 87158 people.

At this moment, the pro-Palestinian media usually invite us to cry over "inhuman conditions the Palestinians have to live in"

So, I opened the official site of the Palestinian Authority and found the Palestinian Bureau of Statistics. You can easily visit it , too, and I assure you that you will not repent about visiting it.

What I found there made me gasp in surprise

Do you know, how many of the Palestinian households have the piped water?

96% in the West Bank and 96,7% in "devastated Gaza"

In France, there are less.

And do you know, how many Palestinian households have near the elementary school?

In the West Bank- 96,&%

And in the "ruined" Gaza? 99, 9%

And how many Palestinian households have the clinic close by?

In the West Bank- 96,9%

And in the "dying" Gaza?

99,3%

Maybe it´s time for citizens of some European countries like Greece, Portugal or Spain to stop thinking about how they can help Arabs in Gaza and to start thinking about how they can help themselves.
