Next Gaza Disaster After War With Israel No Cement for Rebuilding - Businessweek
For years before the latest hostilities, Hamas, the Palestinian political organization, complained that Israeli restrictions on cement imports into Gaza were preventing the population from constructing homes, schools, and hospitals. As it turns out, a large share of the cement that did reach Gaza went into building underground lairs and attack tunnels for fighters from Hamas
A Bloomburg opinion piece contributed to by Calev Ben David, Communications Director of The Israel Project, described as a "right-wing media advocacy group using pro-settlement scaremongering talking points which are incendiary, dangerous, and counter-productive". Yeah OK..."a large share" is a meaningless statement like "how long is a piece of string". Of course some building materials get "syphoned off" for use by the Resistance (similar things happened all the time in occupied Europe in WW2) but in no way was all of it sequestered by the Resistance, as Hossfly tried to imply.
Then why has no actual rebuilding taken place in gaza for nearly a year. Why have the nations promising aid stopped sending it after watching hamas take the lot and use it for tunnels into Israel.
Maybe because the Gazans don't have a "Harry Potter & Hogwarts Construction Company" working for them. In 1947 Berlin had an equivalent population to the Gaza strip, and even with the benefit of the Marshall plan funding and supplying them it took Berliners until 1950 just to clear the rubble; and they had diggers and bulldozer that the Palestinians just don't have in Gaza.
Here's a run down of the situation as at December 2014
"I am the unluckiest housing minister in the world," said Mufeed al-Hasayna, a businessman who spent most of his career in New Jersey before joining a technocratic Palestinian government formed this year to unite Hamas-run Gaza with the West Bank.
According the Hasayna, Gaza needs 8,000 tonnes of cement a day to meet demand. A new system set up with the United Nations to comply with Israeli requirements lets through at most 2,000, he said.
At that rate, reconstruction would take more than 30 years, said Hasayna, one of four members of the unity government based in Gaza rather than the West Bank.
"We have 18,000 fully destroyed buildings and about 50,000 partially destroyed ones," he said. "Gaza before the war needed about 70,000 apartments a year to keep pace with population growth. Now after the war, Gaza needs 150,000 new apartments."
Since the war, electricity has been partially restored so that power is now cut for only eight hours a day. Sewage and water treatment plants are mostly working again, although there is still almost no drinking water.
But in terms of clearing the vast mountains of rubble and mangled steel, rebuilding homes and patching up smashed roads, bridges and other infrastructure, next to nothing has happened.
The biggest difficulty is moving reconstruction materials and other equipment into Gaza. Egypt has largely kept its border with Gaza closed, so any goods must be transferred from Israel, which has two crossings open: one for goods, one for people.
To satisfy Israeli demands for precise tracking of all cement, the United Nations came up with a strict mechanism that involves video and GPS monitoring of materials, which can only be transferred to vetted suppliers.
For ordinary Palestinians who do not have access to the official supplies, if they can find any cement at all, they can buy it only from the black market at more than $50 a bag, more than seven times the normal price.
Clearing away rubble is all but impossible, with little access to diggers and bulldozers.
Hasayna, the housing minister, signed an agreement with the U.N. Development Programme and the Swedish government last week to equip and hire local contractors to clear and recycle rubble from northern Gaza. It has yet to start on a big scale.
The men chipping away at the concrete slabs outside Sadeeqa Naseer's ruined apartment sell any steel and aggregate they can extract. But they have made little progress with hand tools."

Oh by the way, the Germans are STILL rebuilding Berlin, 70 years after the war.
Now go away and try to stop being a complete tosser.
.
So were has one stone been placed on top of another in gaza as part of the rebuilding. And why have the nations who pledged their support to providing building materials stopped sending any at all. And still Israel commits 2,000 tones of cement every day. Why does none of it reach the work sites and instead gets used for building terror tunnels by hamas.
In your haste to racially abuse the Jews you forget that it is not up to Israel to provide any materials when the arab nations have pledged to provide them. Time to come clean and start blaming hamas for the plight of the Palestinians, the same Palestinians that hamas has murdered in cold blood for daring to complain about hamas stealing all the building supplies
