POPSUN Undersec'y for Humanitarian Affairs on Gaza, Jan. 8, 2009 An extremely disturbing picture of the situation on the ground for Gazan civilians. One-third of the dead are children. Aid convoys and Red Cross teams have been prevented from carrying out humanitarian missions and have periodically been fired upon. Much of the civilian population of Gaza is without food, water, medical care, or power.

POPSI'm Confused...... Why is it only Israels closure of boarders that is an issue? Why does no one at the UN decry the Egyptian governments' closed boarders? Now, Egypt, an Arab country who should share the ideals of the Palestinians, isn't allowing much through to Gaza...why? Is it possible that they DON'T share a common bond? When will the UN demand an explanation from Egypt and try to force it, a sovereign government, to open boarders with a country it probably doesn't trust? If Egypt trusted the Palestinian government, they would have allowed any goods, services, supplies in via their boarders...but they don't. Food for thought, huh?
