Israeli-imposed restrictions have limited electricity in Gaza to barely four hours a day, creating a humanitarian catastrophe for its 2 million residents.

In 2012, the World Health Organization warned that Gaza would be uninhabitable by 2020. The U.N. now says the area has already become unlivable, with living conditions in Gaza deteriorating faster than expected.

We go directly to Gaza to speak with Raji Sourani, an award-winning human rights lawyer and director of the Palestinian Center for Human Rights in Gaza. We also speak with Tareq Baconi, author of the forthcoming book, "Hamas Contained: The Rise & Pacification of Palestinian Resistance." He is a policy fellow at Al-Shabaka, The Palestinian Policy Network. -democracynow.org

This is very sad. My heart goes out to all affected by this injustice - especially the children, the elderly and the disabled.

On our current trajectory in the US, we may not be far behind.

This is deplorable...as many other control mechanisms throughout the world.

Karma is a bitch... the Palestinians will have their day!

There is a story about tours that allow Israelis to 'shoot' Palestinians in some mock environment. And then there are the Israeli soldiers who wear T Shirts depicting dead pregnant women, with the caption "two dead, one bullet". I am at a loss for understanding. There comes understanding after studying Dr. David Hawkins' Scale of Consciousness. Most of the world is below the level of integrity.
