DIARIES: LIVE FROM PALESTINE

PALESTINE : DIARIES: LIVE FROM PALESTINE:

IN GAZA, TARGETING A NATION
By Rami Almeghari, Live from Palestine, 2 January 2009

At al-Shifa hospital, Gaza's largest, an unidentified
injured man is laying at the hospital's intensive care
unit. He was hit by shrapnel from an Israeli missile that
struck a target at the Samer crossroad in the Omar
al-Mukhtar street in Gaza City yesterday. "This wounded
patient has sustained critical injuries and his condition
is unstable, but we don't yet know his identity, he is
still unknown," Dr. Omar Manasra, the on-duty doctor of
the intensive care unit said. The Electronic Intifada
correspondent Rami Almeghari reports from the besieged
Gaza Strip.

"CREATIVE ANARCHY" IN THE GAZA STRIP
By Dr. Akram Habeeb, Live from Palestine, 1 January 2009

Bombing governmental institutions in Gaza has nothing to
do with isolating Hamas or weakening the resistance. The
Israeli intent seems to be to create what US Secretary of
State Condoleezza Rice called "creative anarchy." Indeed
Israel has always wanted to keep Palestinians living a
life of disorder. They want chaos to prevail in the Gaza
Strip. Dr. Akram Habeeb writes from the besieged Gaza
Strip.

"DO THESE TRAUMATIZED CHILDREN HAVE ROCKETS?"
By Fida Qishta, Live from Palestine, 1 January 2009

This morning I went with some friends to visit the Block O
neighborhood in the city of Rafah in the south of the Gaza
Strip. While we were in one of the houses we planned to
visit, my phone rang. It was a friend from Gaza City. He
was asking about something. Suddenly I heard the sound of
an explosion on his end. At the same time I heard an
explosion in Rafah too. Fida Qishta writes from besieged
Gaza.

FOR THE SAKE OF GAZA'S 800,000 CHILDREN
By Miko Peled, Live from Palestine, 1 January 2009

As I sit and view the reports, photos and live videos
streaming in from Gaza I find it impossible to make sense
of it all. As a boy growing up in Israel and attending a
regular public school, I remember being taught the story
of Abraham, the patriarch arguing with God over the
decision to destroy the city of Sodom. Miko Peled writes
from the US.
