A postwar plan for Gaza circulating within President Donald Trump's White House envisions demolishing the strip, confiscating all public land within it, paying small amounts to remove the entire population of more than 2 million Palestinians, and building "a gleaming tourism resort and high-tech manufacturing and technology hub" on its ruins, The Washington Post reported on 31 August.

US-Israel plan aims to empty Gaza of Palestinians, build AI-powered 'smart cities': Report
Israeli and US investors eye profits from redeveloping Gaza once the strip is demolished and the Palestinian population is ethnically cleansedthecradle.co
A leaked plan circulating within the Trump administration proposes forcibly removing Gaza’s 2 million Palestinians and turning the enclave into a US-controlled ‘economic hub’.
The scheme, called the ‘Gaza Reconstitution, Economic Acceleration and Transformation Trust (GREAT Trust)’, would replace Gaza’s native population with a new workforce and tourists while creating luxury resorts, high-tech cities, and industrial zones.

💁🏻♀️ ICYMI: 🛠️🏭 Ever wonder why we have weekends? Thank the Labor Movement. During the Industrial Revolution, factory workers organized unions to fight brutal working conditions—low pay, long hours, dangerous workplaces. Their efforts established the 40-hour work week, weekend time off, and child #labor laws we benefit from today.

New plans for a National Commission on electoral reform for Westminster have been set out by an all-party group today.
"The 2024 general election delivered the most disproportionate result in British history."
"A majority government [was] elected on one third of the popular vote (the lowest share ever to deliver a majority of seats), the electorate is fragmented between more parties than ever, and there is a record mismatch between the make-up of Parliament and the votes cast by the public."

A survey of 1,047 US college students on GenAI: 55% use the tech for brainstorming ideas, 18% now question the value of college more than they used to, and more.
Key findings
- Most students are using generative AI for coursework, but many are doing so in ways that can support, not outsource, their learning.
- Performance pressures, among other factors, are driving cheating.
- Nearly all students want action on academic integrity, but most reject policing.
- Students have mixed views on faculty use of generative AI for teaching.
- Generative AI is influencing students’ learning and critical thinking abilities.
- Students want information and support in preparing for a world shaped by AI.
- On the whole, generative AI isn’t devaluing college for students—and it’s increasing its value for some.
Survey: College Students’ Views on AI
Key findings from Inside Higher Ed’s student survey on generative AI show that using the evolving technology hasn’t diminished the value of college in their view, but it could affect their critical thinking skills.Colleen Flaherty (Inside Higher Ed | Higher Education News, Events and Jobs)
