evidence: And I’ll say, also, that it was very horrifying to see this attack, what happened from Hamas in southern Israel against these communities. But also it’s very important to know that this was not an outburst of violence in a condition of peace before. There were several massacres and mass killings that took place by Israel in Gaza during this time period, years leading up to this, including peaceful marches that took place to the separation barrier that contains this territory, [in] which many, many Palestinians were shot and killed, and the response of the international community was quite muted. [...] And I think these two factors, the psychological mental torture and the physical torture of Palestinians, have been going on for decades now. And the people in Gaza felt it more than others, because of the occupations, the siege, the overpopulation of the area, having 2.2 million people in this open prison. I hate to say it, call it a refugee concentration camp, but it’s really become that way. And the fact that, for the past 17 years, there’s been such a tightened siege of the strip, have basically radicalized the population there, and certainly radicalized the Palestinian factions there.
