My take on a variety of topics that are shaping the U.S. in the 21st century.

Tighter and tighter draws the noose
Now all the borders are closed between Israel and Gaza. No food, no fuel, nothing will cross into Gaza. But,of course, in the words of the Israeli Defense Dpartment Gazans can continue to live their normal life.
Does anyone think a more open border would stop the rocket attacks by Hamas, or lessen Israel's thirst for retaliation? I think the problem is in the description- it is not a border, it is the front line of a war. Either way, it doesn't really matter because Bush is going to fix the whole mess this year.

It may not stop either Hamas or Israel. But it might give the people of Gaza a little better life.
