A 21st Century House in Gaza

In the foreground are the mud 'bricks' that will be used to build some more houses similar to those in the background. Gazans are limited to such construction materials because the Israelis have banned the import of building materials into Gaza since 2007.

I'm sure that you're aware of the sewage problems in Gaza. Well, the Red Cross has joined other Gazans in scavenging materials needed to live. The organization is using cement slabs that were once part of the border wall with Egypt to help fix the sewage system.

I wonder what Netanyahu thinks of all this.
