KHAN YOUNIS, Gaza Strip (AP) — Rain lashed the Gaza Strip over the weekend, flooding makeshift encampments with ankle-deep puddles as Palestinians displaced by the two-year war attempted to stay dry in tents frayed by months of use.
Muddy water soaked blankets and mattresses in tents in a camp in Khan Younis and fragile shelters were propped up with old pieces of wood. Children wearing flip-flops and light clothing ill-suited for winter waded through the freezing puddles, which turned dirt roads into rivers. Some people used shovels to try to push the water out of their tents.
“We drowned last night,” said Majdoleen Tarabein, a woman displaced from Rafah in southern Gaza. “Puddles formed, and there was a bad smell. The tent flew away. We don’t know what to do or where to go.”
She showed blankets and the remaining contents of the tent, completely soaked and covered in mud, as she and family members tried to wring them dry by hand.
“When we woke up in the morning, we found that the water had entered the tent,” said Eman Abu Riziq, also displaced in Khan Younis, as she pointed to a puddle just outside. “These are the mattresses — they are all completely soaked. My daughters’ belongings were soaked. The water is entering from here and there,” she said, gesturing toward the ceiling and the corners of the tent. Her family is still reeling from her husband’s recent death, and the constant struggle to stay dry in the winter rains.

Why aren’t these Arabs warm and cozy in Cairo — they could have walked there by now.
Aren’t Gaza’s 2 billion Muslim brothers inviting them into their homes? Or do they only provide weapons?
Yea, well, cheering while young girls are mutilated and dragged through the streets will put that kind of dent in your karma.
In shalla
If all goes well, they’ll die.
My give-a-hoot expired 25 years ago when these animals danced happily on 9/11.
Lying propaganda. Weather quite nice in Gaza this past week.

I would care if the memory of these low lifes dancing in the streets on 9/11 wasnt imprinted on my soul. Effem!
If nothing happens that is not the will of Allah, the Gazan’s are getting exactly what they deserve.
I will never forget the video of the bastards dancing in the streets in one of our cites when the towers fell. I saw that video exactly one time before it got scrubbed.
Yep. I looked at Weather,com and the story appears to be another production of Pallywood.
How many stupid countries in the West will believe this and want to take them ? The Welfare Religion/Cult
Maybe they will learn something? NOT!
Indeed. And dutifully repeated to us as fact by the usual “mainstream” propaganda outlets. Disgusting.
They can all move out to live with their buddies in Iran, Yemen, Somalia, etc.
i believe it was pointed out that living conditions would be unbearable there for many reasons which is why we suggested they be moved elsewhere for rebuild. but that was called an attempt at ethnic cleansing. ahem.
but there were flash floods in Israel a bit ago. well-covered in Israeli press. Eilat was semi-evacuated.
Let NYC build them affordable housing.
Come rant here too.
This really isn’t a problem as Hamas will surely take care of these people without outside help. Also, the people of Gaza evidently prefer that Hamas handle things for them and don’t want “ouotsiders” meddling in their affairs.
They’re like the unhappy feminists. Nobody to blame but themselves.
