1. How long it it take for Hamas to destroy it?
David ,   The Galilee   (02.12.13)
That's all they know how to do! Kill, maim and preach hatred is the norm in Gaza and is becoming the norm on the West Bank which they want Juden Rein. Israel builds and they destroy but the world only sees what it wants to see!
2. Size the opportunity
Dr D ,   Jerusalem   (02.12.13)
The Palestinians should stop investing in weapons and develop Gaza in to a corner of paradise. They should turn Gaza in to the best medical heaven for the Arab world. There are many excellent Palestinian doctor working around the world and I am sure they will join any project. At the moment thousands of Arabs are in Bangkok spending a huge amount of money for healthcare, commerce's and hotels. Why not in Gaza? Just say YES WE CAN and do it.
3. Well, well, well
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (02.12.13)
Aren't the Turks generous! How many hospitals have they built in Syria -- their immediate neighbor -- where hospitals are desperately needed? For that matter, how's medical care doing with respect to Turkey's Kurdish population? Or are they simply following the directive of their Iranian masters to provide something concrete and structurally sound where Hamas can hide weapons, and throw white coats and stethoscopes over terrorist scum and call them "physicians?" My money is on the latter.

Anton you are right on your 1-2-3. As far as Sarah's last point is concerned, I think she is right as Hamas has been known to use civilians as a shield and that includes medical facilities. Regards
10. Community Care for terror weapons
Get Real ,   UK   (02.12.13)
Perhaps in agreeing Israel should have stipulated that weapons inspectors regularly monitor the new building for weapons and missles and for any nuclear materials Iran supplies for medical research. Wouldn't be surprised to see soon that a number of countries friendly to Hamas want to build new mosques and schools in Gaza.
11. Turkey does have nice hospitals of its own
William ,   Israel   (02.12.13)
Which is why it would be easier and cheaper just to fly Gazans to Ankara for care....one-way.
