Gaza Strip in maps: How a year of war has drastically changed life in the territory (www.bbc.co.uk)

Analysis from the BBC (who are usually quite motivated and effective at justifying Israel actions).

The sheer devastation is incredible. 66% of buildings damaged. 90% of the population displaced. Water and sanitation systems non-functional. 53/500 needed lorries entering the territory per day (down from 142). They're not even trying to look they're helping now. The population have been squeezed into over-populated tent cities.

It feels like they think if they create the conditions for disease and it kills people, they don't get blamed.

To me, it's hard to think of a way this could get closer to genocide. Absolutely sick.

Israel seem to be galvanised by inaction of the world and probably looking to do the same in Lebanon. Is Yemen after? Where does this stop?
