It would never happen, could never happen, but if Isreal dropped money and food and negotiated a solution that involved sharing prosperity and place instead of dropping 40 bombs an hour or whatever it is then Palestinians would march anyone involved in Hamas to be detained tried and jailed.
Instead, they have killed 10 thousand, and will kill as many more in a month and more still after that. Then once nothing is left but a pile of rubble, they will build mansions and gardens for new settlers and double down a police state on the remaining Palestinian population who will live with Widespread poverty, disenfranchisement based on severed ties to place, political subjugation, Traumatic experiences, and loss of loved ones.

Sadly Islamic countries are all, unless they sit on a shed load of oil, poor, essentially Islamic law didn't allow for modern banking to develop (they still struggle to deal with the 'sin' of usury) Islamic countries have grimly bad civil legal systems, particularly through inheritance law that actively discourage economic growth and that's before you factor in the general lack of democracy in most and raised levels of corruption, the only way to eliminate the conditions of poverty is to pretty much stop Palestine being an Islamic country, Arabs in Israel, even with the racism and state limitations they face, are still the richest most economically stable Arabic population in the region
