I came across this shocking link via Afsaneh's website .
Malnutrition rates in the Gaza Strip and parts of the West Bank are as bad as those in sub-Saharan Africa, EU MPs said yesterday. They warned that the Israeli security fence around the occupied territories was "destroying the Palestinian economy and creating widespread poverty". As Afsaneh puts it correctly: "No drought in Palestine, but people are starving!"
