The number of Palestinians to die as a result of the Israeli and Egyptian siege of Gaza reached 337 when an infant succumbed to illness on Monday.

The child, 12-month-old Muhammad Rami Ibrahim Nofal, was not issued a permit for medical treatment abroad, despite his serious heart condition.

He died at a Khan Younis hospital while doctors waited for the permit that never came. 
						
			      In a statement, the de facto Health Ministry said it had appealed to Egyptian authorities to open the Rafah border crossing for the movement of patients seeking treatment abroad.

Both Israel and Egypt have blockaded the Gaza Strip since Hamas' takeover in 2007.

QUOTE OF THE DAY"The free press is the mother of all our liberties and of our progress under liberty"   Adlai E. Stevenson 
"There is no more important struggle for American democracy than ensuring a diverse, independent and free media. Free Press is at the heart of that struggle."  Bill Moyers 
"This is, in theory, still a free country, but our politically correct, censorious times are such that many of us tremble to give vent to perfectly acceptable views for fear of condemnation. Freedom of speech is thereby imperiled, big questions go undebated, and great lies become accepted, unequivocally as great truths."  Simon Heffer in The Daily Mail, 7 June 2000 
"The only security of all is in a free press. The force of public opinion cannot be resisted when permitted freely to be expressed. The agitation it produces must be submitted to. It is necessary, to keep the waters pure."  Thomas Jefferson to Lafayette, 1823 
"A cantankerous press, an obstinate press, a ubiquitous press, must be suffered by those in authority in order to preserve the right of the people to know.":  Murray I. Gurfein 
One of the shrewdest ways for human predators to conquer their stronger victims is to steadily convince them with propaganda that they're still free.   N.A. Scott
