YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAs Gaza marks one year since the launch of Israel’s devastating 50day assault, it remains in a state of crisis. The assault killed 2,200 Palestinians, including 550 children. On the Israeli side, 73 people were killed, all but six of them soldiers. A year later, none of the 12,000 homes destroyed in Gaza have been rebuilt, in part due to the ongoing Israeli blockade. The World Bank is warning the Gaza economy is on the verge of collapse. Overall unemployment now stands at 43 percent the highest in the world. We speak with Palestinian journalist Mohammed Omer, author of "ShellShockedOn the Ground Under Israel’s Gaza Assault."
