Hiyam Noir

GAZA - The Holy fasting month Ramadan, starts today - and the life in Gaza is unbearable.The Israelis chemical warfare on Gaza has seized, though the Israelis physiological war on Gaza continues, killing the Palestinians slowly. Gaza residents encounter frequent electric cuts and the blackouts continue to impede public services.The border crossings to the outside world from Gaza are still sealed.1.6 million people, the residents of Gaza are denied their legal Human Rights to leave and return to their own homeland.

In the Holy Ramadan, Muslims over the world use to give to the sick and poor.The Muslims in Gaza fears that there will be no food to feed their own sick and needy.The Israelis prevent delivery of fresh food.and gifts from friends and relatives outside Gaza,and Humanitarian aid convoys are intentionally delayed or simply denied entry shipment of medication, basic household goods, and much needed, learning books and notebooks, to the school-children.

Life in Gaza Exposed to Chemical Components

In Gaza the the children and young ones are denied to grow up healthy, the adults are denied to grow old, their natural lifespan is been shortened by cancer,diabetes and other fatal diseases.After the Israelis many chemical wars on Gaza, the population across the densely populated enclave, are exposed to unusually high amounts of toxic contaminants.The soil, the air and the water is contaminated,infested by allotrope's as arsenic and white phosphorous, radioactive uranium,and other metallic chemical elements such as, lithium, the pesticide DDT, the heavy metal mercury and lead.

The routes of exposure to these environmental chemicals are inhalation, ingestion, and absorption through the skin.( from air, soil, the water, food and consumer products).Traces of man made lethal compounds have been found in body tissues and fluids, as a result of exposure to chemical contaminants,components of these lethal agents have also been found in new born and small children from breast feeding.

Exposure of contaminants into an environment (ecosystem,)causes instability, disorder, harm to living organisms, including human beings.Evidence from analysis of food and water as well as from samples of fluids and tissues reveal that the Gazan’s have unusual high amounts of some of these lethal contaminants. In other words the human population in Gaza have been poisoned, and it is highly likable that future generations whose parents were exposed to lethal contaminants,will suffer from fatal deceases, genetic birth defects and congenital deformities.
