Friday 29 September 2006, 12:50 Makka Time, 9:50 GMT Palestinian-American Jamal Abu Asi spent his summer trying to find a way into the West Bank. Turned away from Israeli-controlled borders three times since July, the Florida businessman was only allowed into the country last week.
"I don't know what to do. My options are either to stay and have my visa expired, or to leave and not come back for a year or two," he explains. Asi, one of hundreds of Palestinians with foreign passports, who has been affected by a tightening of Israeli visa rules, may have to move his wife and four children back to the US. |

JABALIYA REFUGEE CAMP, Gaza Strip (AFP) - More than 10,000 Palestinians have demonstrated in a Gaza refugee camp in support of the Hamas-led government as the embattled cabinet marked six months in office.
Thousands of men, women and children gathered Friday in the impoverished Jabaliya refugee camp, a Hamas bastion, amid a sea of the Islamist movement's green banners, children decked out in green and homemade placards. |

Le Figaro Thursday 28 September 2006 While global attention is still centered on Lebanon, less than 200 km to the south, Gaza constitutes a time bomb. Some 1.4 million people, mostly children, are piled up in one of the most densely populated regions of the world, with no freedom of movement, no place to run, and no space to hide. Virtually without external access since June, Gaza is experiencing a rise in poverty, unemployment, penury, and despair. Sadly, that which Gaza most needs today is precisely what it lacks the most: hope.
