The '''Gaza Strip''' is a small strip of land 360 square kilometers, and has a population of 1.4 million people, making it one of the most densely populated places in the world. It was under [[Egyptian]] control from 1948 until 1967 when [[Israel]] conquered it in the [[Six Day War]].  Israel withdrew from the Gaza strip in August 2005, effectively returning sovereignty to the [[Palestinian Authority]].  In June 2007, the radical militant terrorist group [[Hamas]] forcefully took control of the Gaza strip from the PA.

Terrorists still attack Israel from the Gaza strip with missiles, in response to this Israel is bombarding with a disproportionate amount of bombs. Many countries and organizations do not offer support to the citizens or government of Gaza. On January 3, 2008 Israel has started a ground campaign in Gaza. It was preceded by an artillery barrage to soften the border so Israeli troops could cross safer. Israel still insists that this campaign is against Hamas targets and that it has no plans to reoccupy the land. Hamas, rather than stop firing rockets into Gaza has begun sabre rattling and stated that they will kidnap and kill invading Israeli soldiers and cause mental illness from the horrors they will bring them. They have also stated that they will begin suicide attacks again.[http://www.onenewsnow.com/Headlines/Default.aspx?id=372854]
