- Nidal al-Mughrabi: Gaza’s Sick Fear For Their Lives
JABALYA, Gaza, Jan 21 (Reuters) – Ready to act fast to save his life, Maher Al-Assali’s young siblings stand at his bedside, poised to pump air through a hole in the 12-year-old’s neck when the ventilator that keeps him alive cuts out. Since being paralysed in a car accident seven years ago, Assali has depended [...]
- Gaza Community Mental Health Programme: Press Release
Tightened Siege on Gaza Reaches Unprecedented Levels and Endangers the Lives of 1.5 Million Civilians Israel has imposed a severe siege on the Gaza Strip since Hamas’ winning of the parliamentary elections in January, 2006. Furthermore, Israel has tightened this siege following Hamas military domination over the Gaza Strip in June, 2007 when Israel [...]
- Martin Luther King Jr.: I Have a Dream
I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation. Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of [...]
- Who Benefits from Gaza’s Misery?

Mrs Rahal was buried yesterday with one of the sons, Mohammed, 23. The pair were innocent victims of a four-day [...]
- The Answer To Peace Talks? Bomb Gaza!
I am always interested to read the Gaza security briefings I receive daily. Today I read that the Erez checkpoint has been closed until at least January 21 for all but the most exceptional cases (and we all know that even then, it’s incredibly hard to get in or out of Gaza). Apparently the order [...]
- Safa Joudeh: Witnessing the Siege
It is supposed that one can build factual perception by reading the statistics and getting all the hard evidence, but I recently realized that a complete cognitive process relies first and foremost on visuals — seeing the picture for oneself. I joined a camera crew and producer shooting footage for a first-person interview on the [...]
- Kris is Back (Though Not Entirely Without Regrets)
You will be pleased to know that Ilektra and I arrived back in Denmark a few days ago and I have been eagerly trying to organize myself before posting. It would be impossible for me to fully condense my thoughts so soon after having returned from Gaza, so I won’t do it now. I have [...]
