Israel, why don't you nuke them for once and for all?
A report by the British charity says the year-long boycott of the Hamas-led government has seen an increase in poverty in Gaza and the West Bank. Oxfam said poverty levels had risen by 30%, basic services faced meltdown and factional violence plagued the streets. This situation, it says, may prevent a two-state solution with Israel.
OXFAM SURVEY FINDINGS
Four out of five of 677 families saw a drop in their income following the boycott
50% of all the families reported losing more than 50% of their Income
90% of the managers running schools, hospitals and water services across the West Bank and Gaza said services undermined
