While you and I sit back in the comfort of our homes watching reality TV, this is what's going on every single day in Gaza (Palestine).
P.S. The 99% of media will NEVER show you these images and realities.
For Starters, there's no Fuel Supply

And emergency services suffer shortages too
Palestinians attend a rally in front of the Rafah border crossing
with Egypt on February 18, 2012 during a sit-in by dozens of emergency
crews and ambulance workers demanding Egypt provide the Gaza Strip with
electricity and diesel. Egypt has promised to provide diesel fuel for
the Gaza Strip’s sole power plant, which went down this week after
running out of fuel, a Gaza official said. UPI/Ismael Mohamad

Premature babies receive treatment in Nasser Hospital as the hospital
is in danger of running out of fuel, in Khan Younis, southern Gaza on
February 16, 2012. Gas stations in the Gaza are drying up due to the
crisis in Egypt and the closing of the fuel lines through the ‘smuggling
tunnels’ between Rafah and the Egyptian side of the border. An Israel
blockade has left Gaza with very little fuel rations for its citizen.
