 ten hours at the border between Egypt and Gaza, Barbara Lubin entered the

 destruction and trauma in the Gaza Strip is even greater that I expected,"

 homes.\n\nSabreen, a young woman from Rafah, told Lubin, "We are a strong 
 people.  No matter how many times Israel bombs us, we are not 
 leaving."\n\n\nWith a brief introduction to the historical and geographical
