Gothams pitches seven-year Gaza logistics monopoly with 3x returns
A November draft from US disaster-response firm Gothams LLC proposed a fully integrated Gaza logistics system that would give the contractor a seven-year exclusive contract and a minimum three-times return on capital, plus fees for each truck and for warehousing. The Guardian reports the plan has attracted White House interest amid discussions around a Trump-chaired Board of Peace, but officials say no contract exists yet and includes informal talks with investors; critics call the terms exorbitant in a context where Gaza’s reconstruction is estimated at about $70 billion.
