Vast Majority of Gazans Ready to Say that 2014 Conflict with Israel Was a Grim Defeat
(Ha'aretz) Amira Hass - A year after the Hamas movement assured the public that a war had ended yet again in victory and Jerusalem would be liberated the same way, the vast majority of Gazans are ready to say that the 2014 conflict with Israel was a grim defeat. Hamas is having to impose new local purchase taxes to underwrite the ongoing activity of its ministries. The ruins, together with the disabled and wounded from the wars, remain a common sight. At 43% unemployment - 60% among young people - about half say they want to emigrate.
