...To date, 396 truckloads of humanitarian aid were delivered to Gaza through Israeli crossings since Dec. 27, 2008. Too many, in fact, that the World Food Program informed Israel it would cease shipment of food to Gaza because supplies - enough to last two weeks - were overcrowding warehouses. There were 90,000 phone calls made by the IDF and 800,000 leaflets disseminated to families in Gaza warning them to evacuate their homes and stay away from terrorist and weapons storage sites.
One hundred percent of the Gaza Strip was evacuated by Israel and handed over to the Palestinians in 2005. Zero settlements remain. The 10,200 rockets fired into Israel have caused 28 deaths - 507 of these rockets were launched during the ceasefire alone. Thirty children in Israel would have been killed had they been present at the kindergarten in Ashdod that was struck by rockets from Gaza on Jan. 5.
Twenty Palestinians have been evacuated to Israel for medical attention. Zero wounded Palestinians were allowed by Hamas to cross from Gaza to Egypt for treatment.
Meanwhile, two lions were smuggled into Gaza through tunnels under the border between Egypt and Gaza.
Only one Israeli remains in Gaza - Staff Sgt. Gilad Shalit, who was abducted by Hamas terrorists on June 25, 2006.
