Btw, besides Israel just wanting to eradicate Palistine, is this land valuable? It looks rather inhospitable.
It looks inhospitable because of the water apartheid.

Water is so scarce and precious that nearly every Palestinian home has a rooftop water tank. Water for aesthetic things like plants or lawns is a luxury.

Inhospitality has never stopped developers. See Florida.
