A Taste of “Concentration Camp” Gaza: The Movenpick Hotel

Inspired by the Gaza mall photos, I have featured on this blog various facilities from Gaza, with the aim of providing readers with a glimpse into the real Gaza, which is anything but a concentration camp as some claim.

My point is not that there is no hardship in Gaza, but rather that the situation is a far cry from what is being presented by the palestinians, their supporters and the mainstream media.

Introducing Gaza’s Movenpick Hotel, a $40 million, 10-floor, 250-room, five star luxury hotel with spa and swimming pool. According to their Facebook page, it is to open soon.

    Obviously the government has all the building materials it needs. But it refuses to let the poor people with damages/destroyed homes get access.

    With the breathtaking scenery in the background, its obvious we should never have given Gaza away.
