GROUND ZERO: On Tuesday, the PA arrested PFLP leader Ahmed Saadat, bringing hundreds of protestors into the streets. A besieged population's ability to defend itself -- let alone fight back -- received a further blow on the same day, when Israel denied press accreditation to dozens of Palestinian media workers.

Meanwhile, Umm Delila continued to wait, in the Gaza Strip refugee camp of Deir Al-Balah, as she has for most of her 70 years. Waiting for what? Freedom, and a home she once called her own. (photo: AP)
