GAZA: Photos from the World's Biggest Concentration Camp
رغم الحصار اهالى غزة يتبضعون الملابس لاطفالهم
التبضع وشراء الفاكه والمكسرات وما يلزم لاستقبال العيد
صناعة كعك العيد وشراء الحلويات استعداداُ للعيد
الابناء والاباء يتزينون احتفالاُ بهذا اليوم
واخيرا شراء الاضاحى وتجهزهاا لهذا اليوم يوم عيد الاضحى المبارك

It looks like they're starving and suffering, doesn't it? Now, the same group that maintains that Arabic web site also maintains an English language web site that gives a far different picture of 'Palestinian' life in Gaza. They learned well from that old double talker Arafat, didn't they?
The pictures on the Arabic-language site were posted for the Eid al Adha Muslim festival, which recalls the forefather Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son, who the Bible states was Isaac. The Muslim tradition substitutes him with Ishmael.Hmmm. Read the whole thing.
The pictures on the Arabic-language site are headlined with the caption, "Clothes for their children despite the siege," referring to the partial blockade Israel placed on Gaza following the Hamas military coup more than two year ago.
Israel has allowed thousands of trucks, bearing tens of thousands of tons of food, goods and equipment into Gaza, but the United Nations has claimed several times that a humanitarian crisis is "imminent."
Statistics provided by the Palestinian Authority show that unemployment in the Gaza area dropped in the second quarter this year by 20 percent from 45.5 percent in the second quarter of 2008.
But what I'm really curious about is how they have all those fancy baked goods. After all, Richard Goldstone told us that Gaza's 'only flour mill' was 'cruelly destroyed by Israel. So where has all the flour gone? Seemingly to that one bakery in Gaza.
Hmmm.
