  Posted by robynoratocom
  Gazan blogger Heba Z took a break from writing because she was starting to lose faith that it would change anything, and in her words, no one was listening anyway. It was a simple cup of coffee restored her faith in humanity. Read her story - and let her know you're listening.

- The Gaza crisis and the failure of Palestinian nationalism
  Posted by Sandyenglish
  The formation of a new government by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and the declaration of a state of emergency, after a week of civil warfare in Gaza between Fatah and Hamas ended in the military victory of the Islamist movement, have consolidated the de facto political division between the West Bank and Gaza Strip.

- Media stars back ad for BBC man
  Posted by Jeff from BBC News
  The move comes three weeks to the day that Mr Johnston, 44, disappeared. Palestinian journalists plan a rally and a boycott in coverage of government activities to press for his release. The BBC has had no contact since 12 March with Mr Johnston, who has lived and worked in Gaza for the past three years. He is widely believed to have been kidnapped, but no demands have been made public.

- Hamas, Israeli clashes kill 7 in Gaza
  Posted by Billbar from CBC
  The Israeli military killed seven Palestinians before ending a 72-hour incursion into the northern Gaza Strip on Saturday, Palestinian security officials said. Five of the dead were identified as members of the militant group Hamas, security officials said. The Palestinians were killed when an Israeli missile struck a house. No Israeli soldiers were wounded. The Israeli military says troops were in the area east of Gaza City in order to stop Palestinians from firing rockets in southern Israel.

- Gaza is a jail. Nobody is allowed to leave. We are all starving now'
  Posted by Billbar from The Independent
  Gaza is dying. The Israeli siege of the Palestinian enclave is so tight that its people are on the edge of starvation. Here on the shores of the Mediterranean a great tragedy is taking place that is being ignored because the world's attention has been diverted by wars in Lebanon and Iraq. A whole society is being destroyed. There are 1.5 million Palestinians imprisoned in the most heavily populated area in the world. Israel has stopped all trade. It has even forbidden fishermen to go far from the shore so they wade into the surf to try vainly to catch fish with hand-thrown nets.
