Banksy says make Gaza your holiday destination...
so meet your tour guides.
Yes Bansky, come discover my state of Gaza.
My name is Abdalla AlQassab.
Nearly 50% of us are unemployed and we are
very available to show you around.
Welcome to Gaza!
I'm sure we can find a place for you to stay
but there are around 12,000 people here in
Gaza needing homes and needing houses but
with no construction materials coming in,
here in Gaza we can't rebuild.
We have a lot of friends and neighbours around
us and they keep their eyes on us.
Electricity comes and goes - in Gaza we must
be patient in everything.
(Gaza's single power station shut down last
week)
We offer you bread and water but actually
most of the water here isn't drinkable and
bottled water is too, too expensive, but we
are happy to share with you.
(90 percent of all water in Gaza is undrinkable)
We are here in the sea port of Gaza. There
is a lot of people come here.
Because the situation in Gaza is very difficult,
they look at the sea.
They want to go out, they want to see the
world.
We want to see the parkour teams, we want
to see everything because we want to do a
lot of things, you know, and we dream a lot.
(Seeing the world will remain a dream until
the borders open)
In spite of all this happening in Gaza we
are here and alive and our spirit is very strong.
So come and discover us and make Gaza your
destination.
