Sharyn Lock's eyewitness account brings home the horror of life in Gaza beneath the bombs.Sharyn went to the Gaza strip with the Free Gaza Movement, thinking the greatest danger she faced was making it past the Israeli sea blockade in a fishing boat, but soon after her arrival Israel attacked Gaza's 1.5 million inhabitants by land, air and sea. With others from the International Solidarity Movement, Sharyn volunteered with Palestinian ambulances, assisting them as they faced overwhelming civilian casualties. Her candid and dramatic blogs from Gaza gave the world an insight into the conflict that the mainstream media - unable to enter Gaza - couldn't provide.Gaza: Beneath the Bombs provides a view of Gaza difficult to glimpse from outside - of a people who face their oppression not only with courage but with humour. 606 $aGaza War, 2008-2009$vPersonal narratives 607 $aGaza Strip$xHistory$y21st century 615 0$aGaza War, 2008-2009 700 $aLock$b Sharyn$01516133 701 $aIrving$b Sarah$01516134 701 $aFalk$b Richard$0128681 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792700903321 996 $aGaza$93752377 997 $aUNINA
