The amount of aid that Gaza has received, and continues to receive, and that it has squandered, is obscene. Billions and billions of dollars. All wasted on tunnels and weapons, and lining the pockets of their “leadership” in Qatar. The whole aid to Gaza is such a charade

Just because a bunch of aid has been subject to corruption doesn't mean all aid is bad. Let's not throw the bombed babies out with the bathwater here.
Israel providing schools and hospitals is great, and if they stopped there, a generation of kids would grow up starting to wonder "are the Israelis really as bad as everyone says? They seem fine to me..."
Instead, they grow up thinking "those guys booted us out of our houses and spat on us", or worse, "those guys bombed my apartment building and killed my parents and siblings".
Aid will never overcome wiping out someone's loved ones or displacing them from their homes.
While a complete solution is surely complex and difficult, this part isn't unguided Hamas rocket science.
