Hell on Earth

Maybe Gaza is not the worst place to be, but it's close. WHO says that "74 percent of children aged 9-12 months are anaemic, up from 65 percent in 2009, as are another 32 percent of children aged 7-15 years, and 45 percent of pregnant women in their first months of pregnancy". Unemployment has been as high as 65%. 80% of the people live off food aid as they earn $2 a day if they're lucky. Half of the farms have been destroyed and fishing is not exactly great. So, where does the food come from? That's a major, major problem. Be thankful for what you have.
