"Gaza is the only place on earth where the place is unlivable and the people can't move, they can't leave, they're trapped! ...Two million people, half of whom are children, are trapped, caged in an unlivable space where they are, "Slowly being poisoned!""
Democracy Now!: This spring’s mass nonviolent protests in Gaza come as the human rights conditions in the “open-air prison” have even further deteriorated. Last year, the United Nations issued a report warning Gaza is already “unlivable.” The majority of its water is contaminated, and electricity is limited to only a few hours a day. About half the population is children.Almost all are refugees who are prevented from ever leaving the tiny Gaza Strip, one of the most densely populated places on Earth. For more, we speak with Norman Finkelstein, author and scholar whose most recent book is titled “Gaza: An Inquest into Its Martyrdom."
