How Many Millionaires Live in the "Impoverished" Gaza Strip?

How Many Millionaires Live in the "Impoverished" Gaza Strip?

http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/33...a-millionaires

"The world often thinks of the Gaza Strip, home to 1.4 million Palestinians, as one of the poorest places on earth, where people live in misery and squalor.

But according to an investigative report published in the pan-Arab newspaper Asharq Al-Awsat, there are at least 600 millionaires living in the Gaza Strip. The newspaper report also refutes the claim that the Gaza Strip has been facing a humanitarian crisis because of an Israeli blockade............................"

An interesting story on something the MSM does not talk about.

An inconvenient truth, perhaps?

Thanks for posting. Gave google translate a workout on the article's source report; interesting. Seems like these states/regimes/thugs have a pattern that always insures the biggest revenue stream flows their way. In some ways it seems like same circus/different clowns, but that could be vastly simplifying.
