Some environmentally friendly nation
Or individual corporation
Could easily donate
Alternative electrical generating equipment
In a gesture of goodwill towards the citizens of Gaza.

Thereby eliminating Gaza's dependency of foreign fuel imports
The logistical problems of delivery and the ecological disaster
That is now resulting in the burning of such crude diesel fuel
Using conventional electrical generating equipment.

Such compassionate understanding towards the Citizens of Gaza
Would unshackle them from their dependency -
Never again would they become held hostage
To the spiraling cost of electrical production.
