Gaza's Tunnels Are Lifeline for Territory under Siege

Aljazeera English reports on the tunnels that Gazans use to blunt the impact of the siege imposed on them by Israel (and Egypt).



The smugglers are sometimes killed in tunnel collapses or by demolitions by the Egyptian government.

Human rights protesters against Israel's virtual siege of the civilian population have sailed from Cyprus to Gaza, bringing aid.

Israeli journalist Gideon Levy lays out a case against Israeli policy in Gaza.

A Scottish human rights activist filmed Israeli sailors shooting at unarmed civilian Gazan fishermen.

Indeed, "aid supplies"! Baloons and hearing aids. I guess they need the baloons to test the wind direction for rocket launching and hearing aids for the Jihadis who are nearby when HAMAS "activists" have a "work accident" when preparing explosives in civilian neighborhoods. What BS!
