Weep for this unholy place of violence, destruction, pain, anguish, and
despair! Where peace seems to have been sold in an exchange for generations of
hatred, vengeance and despise among acclaimed religious people. In this land of
suffering, unborn babies appear to have a foresight of their enemies.
The Gaza Strip is located on the Mediterranean Sea along the eastern coast;
the land has borders with Israel and Egypt to the east and southwest,
respectively. At its west, the
Mediterranean Sea shoreline forms the border of the 25-mile land of the Gaza
land, which is approximately 12 kilometres wide. Author Ilan Pappe in his recent
publication called this place “The biggest prison on earth”.
The author refers
to the security infrastructure and the tough administrative mechanisms put in
place to control the population of about one million Palestinians that call the
Gaza Strip “home”. Author S. T. Kimbrough, on the other hand, draws word-pictures
of the horrors and inhumane activities taking place in Gaza. The author through
poems invites the world to witness the result of long-term injustice and unfair
conflicts, savagery and destruction in "The Gaza Prison". It’s an advocacy
call for peace in Gaza and environs.
One may
ask, has the Gaza Strip ever been a peaceful place to live in?
Yes, it has!History has it that only in three
major periods has this piece of land experienced a type of peace! Firstly,between
1920 and early 1930, a time popularly known as the Pre-1948 (Ottoman &
British Mandate period). Secondly, between 1994 and 2000 known as the Post
Oslo-Accords as well as between 2005 and 2006, when Israel withdrew their
troops briefly.
