		<description><![CDATA[One year after the beginning of Israel&#8217;s 22-day assault on the Gaza Strip, reconstruction work has barely begun. The territory is strewn with ruins and workers in Gaza City have only just begun clearing the rubble.

		<title>Young Palestinians feel powerless</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For generations, young Palestinians were the driving force behind every major change to their society. However, these days the group is shrouded in a thundering silence.

		<title>Giving up on a Palestinian state?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Clinton&#8217;s disastrous Middle East trip seems to have crushed the little hope there was for the renewal of negotiations. As a result voices among Palestinians for a one state solution grow louder and louder.

“I give up the Palestinian state. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Het duurt nog geen zestig seconden. Maar een tv-commercial van een lokale telefoonaanbieder zorgt voor opschudding in Israel. In het omstreden spotje zou de Muur rondom de Westelijke Jordaanoever op een relativerende manier geportretteerd worden, tot woede van de Palestijnen. Een vrolijk partijtje voetbal bij de Muur vinden ze ongepast.
Palestijnse politici noemen de spot walgelijk [...]]]></description>
