the island would create over 60000 jobs in times where people are losing their jobs in thousands all over the world. pragmatically speaking the island would be great for the economy of Lebanon because most investors are from the gulf so no matter what happenes the Lebanon will not lose money.
this said, the island also entails many problems because Lebanon is already a major touristic country with thousands of touristic places and the lebanese do NOT need something artificiel like the palm jumeira to help tourism. also there major worries about the environment and eco system.
in my personal opinion the advantages outweigh the disadvantages but many lebanese disagree.

Richmond Cedar Works was in business from 1894 until its closure in 1945. The company specialized in producing cedar products, including shingles and other wood materials, and played a significant role in the local economy of Richmond, Virginia, during its operation. After World War II, changes in the timber industry and market demands contributed to its shutdown.
Cedar was vital to the coastal Indigenous peoples, particularly in the Pacific Northwest, due to its versatility and abundance. They used cedar wood to craft canoes, totem poles, and longhouses, while the inner bark served as material for weaving baskets and clothing. The tree also held cultural significance, symbolizing strength and resilience, and was often used in ceremonies and traditional practices. Overall, cedar was integral to their daily life, economy, and spirituality.
