Gaza's Suffering Is Unprecedented
Briefly

My brother has survived nearly a year of war in Gaza while working to aid its people. He has scrambled out of the rubble of an air strike... diseases such as polio and hepatitis are starting to spread through an already battered, weak, sick, tired, malnourished, and desperate population. The raw sewage, trash, and unsanitary conditions are present throughout the Gaza Strip... and there is still no end in sight.
The spread of disease, breakdown of law and order, proliferation of crime, rise of food insecurity and malnutrition, collapse of the health-care system... have completely and utterly broken Gaza's population. After enduring unimaginable suffering and loss, the people of Gaza are desperate for a future that does not include Hamas or Israel controlling their lives.
