If Gaza Falls...

http://www.lrb.co.uk/v31/n01/roy_01_.html

a good article written by Sara Roy, who teaches at the Harvard University Center for Middle Eastern Studies. it gives us a glimpse of the urgency of the situation within the confines of the Gaza strip.

when a territory and its people have absolutely no authority over its boarders, coastline, and airspace, how can it be autonomous? when Israel denies access into and out of Gaza, which includes denying humanitarian aid and food into the territory, how can Israel claim there is "no humanitarian crisis" ???? why is there even a debate? what ever happened to the role of the UN?
