Yediot Ahronot discusses the various steps that must be taken to rehabilitate the economy of the Gaza Strip and asserts that a critical step is, The elimination of the camps and the resettling of at least 500,000 refugees in areas inside the Strip. The editors believe that this would be possible with generous Arab and international financing and would be an economic boon but add that such a step, demands a courageous national Palestinian decision that has yet to be made and without it, Gaza will continue to fall.
