President Trump’s brazen suggestion of converting the Gaza Strip into a Riviera, a kind of coastal paradise, has been widely criticized. The critics include Arab and European leaders, as well as residents of the Gaza Strip. These influential people have failed to bring lasting peace to the Middle East after decades of individual and collective efforts. How much longer can the land of Gaza and the Middle East tolerate the conflict, hatred and blood spilling?
Author Anne
Irfan can help any new scholar review the history of the Middle East conflict!
From the occupation of Gaza by Israel to the rise of Hamas, her narration is
most interestingly crafted. The book, titled"A Short History of the Gaza
Strip”, rehearses how the conflict brewed and overflowed its banks. Can you
imagine the hostile groups, the hostile governments, the numerous dead and
wounded children, and men and women? As a passionate environmentalist, I can
imagine decades of sustained destruction of animals, trees, plants, and
creatures in the air and water and, finally, on the land.
When will the Middle Eastern people start to think of a plan to compensate their environment for the harm and the losses? Is President Trump's Riviera dream for Gaza the answer to Earth's cry for peace in this region?
A Riviera? Yes! A coastal paradise! Early this year, President Trump voiced his dream for the Middle East. He sees the strip of land along the Mediterranean coastline as an opportunity for enormous wealth through establishing a resort for tourism, a place of luxury, a location of relaxation, leisure and education. The president compares the location to Miami and the South of France. He sees wealth, development, prosperity and peace as against what the world has received from the inhabitants of this geographical location since many decades. President Trump thinks of business! I think environmental! What do you think?
Between the
years 1947 and 1949, history recorded a kind of ethnic cleansing of Palestine.
Author Ilan Pappe vividly describes this event in his book titled “The ethnic
cleansing of Palestine”. The book speaks of a million Palestinians, who
included women and children, who were expelled from their habitations amidst
massacres in 400 villages. The author blames the ghosts of this horrific event as
the reason for the never-ending conflict in the Middle East.
Let’s ask the vengeance-seeking Palestinians! Ask the Israelis, who must avenge their frequently shattered peace! If all the dead ones and the ones that may yet die are to be avenged, will there ever be peace?
Author Ian S. Lustick’s
book sounds unsympathetic to the two-state solution. The book titled ‘’Paradigm
Lost’’ analyses the “Arab-Israeli conflicts” as never to be ended by any one
state or two-state solution. The author is of the opinion that two state solutions
activate competition among different subgroups forced to live together. This
catalyses the formation of new groups and alliances of newer interests, which
oft have no laid down management plan by the governments. On the other hand,
author Debra Cohen in the second edition of her book “Jewish Palestine/Arab
Palestine” advocates Trump's POTUS 47 RELO Plan. The author lays down numerous
convincing facts that this plan should work.

President
Trump’s idea while sounding rash, unreasonable and selfish may save the world
of much more losses, grief and pain. A coastal resort may save more lives; more
resources and, it will save the land of Gaza and give the environment the
opportunity to recover and heal itself. Can
you hear the environment crying out alongside the blood of the innocent dead
ones? How long will earth’s voice be considered insignificant in the Middle
East? There is the need for this region to give back to the environment a
bit of what she has lost to conflicts and destruction.
If
the land of the Middle East is to have a rest, surely, rethinking and reviewing
the possibility of ownership and establishment of a Riviera or Coastal Paradise
should be exploited. May this concept positively motivate great
numbers of Palestinians and Israelis. May the threat of a forceful relocation
of the residents awaken the sleeping conscience of those that truly love,
cherish and value the Gaza Strip to re-unite more purposefully and force peace
to come to stay home!
