Many readers remember him for a documentary I made in Gaza during the war. Hossam recent years was my driver and guide in the Gaza Strip. On July 21, the Israeli Air Force bombed convertible the house of his neighbors flat. He helped unearth the dead neighbors. In all those years I had not seen Hossam, so gray.
After fifty long days and nights of the war between Gaza and Israel came to a standstill. The death toll was in the thousands, the number of destroyed and damaged homes in the tens of thousands. Those are numbers.
There are also giving figures on international aid money through numerous political reasons, did not come through, the even higher unemployment than was already there, or millimeters of rain have fallen since the beginning of winter in the rubble, between here and as people convertible try to live. Tight throat
Gaza is depression. That is not to say in numbers but widely felt when you're visiting now. "Can you take me?" or "How do I get out of here?" It is without exaggeration the question me lately is most often asked. Gaza has a relatively young population, and all the young people in that tiny strip of land sandwiched between fences and a sealed-off sea, have nothing to look forward to. It feels like a tight throat.
I recently spoke with Hasan Zeyada, a famous psychologist from Gaza who has been working for years with war trauma. "There is a sense of helplessness and hopelessness," he said. "Everyone always tries to find solutions, convertible but the motivation starts to disappear." Self Zeyada was during the last war of counselor also victims. He lost his mother and three brothers in an Israeli convertible bombardment.
There comes a text message on my phone from inside an Israeli press. "Two Palestinians went through the security fence, arrested and interrogated. They had no weapons." As if I was waiting for this piece. This week, an Israeli newspaper reported that more Palestinians from Gaza to Israel trying to flee. They run through the buffer zone to the fence and hope that they are not killed, but was arrested. They prefer the cell in Israel convertible over the prison that is Gaza. Since September there were 66, said the Israeli army. The two of today were not tallied there.
Hossam is so lucky. He got a visa for Sweden. His wife and two children were already over there. Fifteen months he saw daily on Skype how his daughter and son grew, Swedish prevailed and played in thick winter coats in the snow. Hossam had to wait a long time, first on a visa, then at the time that Egypt is the only border crossing would open again. But now he is on his way to his family.
