Israel-Hamas war has devastated economies of both Gaza and the West Bank, IMF head says
2024-02-12
The poor darlings.
[IsraelTimes] The war between Israel and Hamas
...one of the armed feet of the Moslem Brüderbund millipede,...
has devastated the economies of both the war-torn Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
Strip and the West Bank, the International Monetary Fund’s chief says, adding that only "durable peace" will improve the outlook.

"The Paleostinian economy’s dire outlook is worsening as the conflict persists," managing director Kristalina Georgieva tells the World Governments Summit in Dubai.

"Only a durable peace and political solution will fundamentally change it."

"Economically, the impact of the conflict has been devastating," Georgieva said.

In the Gaza Strip economic activity dropped 80 percent from October through December compared with a year earlier, the IMF chief says. The war between Israel and Hamas began on October 7 when Hamas launched a shock terror onslaught in southern Israel.

She adds that in the West Bank, economic activity has dropped by 22 percent.

#4  This is the entire point. The attacks of Oct. 7 had and should have had numerous consequences in order to deter further attacks.

I don't think the Japanese economy in 1945 was in any great shape, either. But they have made remarkable strides since then, having learned the right lesson. Palestinians, take note.
