NPR reported today that the overwhelming majority of the aid Israel is allowing into Gaza is *commercial.*
In other words, Israel is banning free food and shelter aid and only allowing in goods that Palestinians have to buy.
With money they don't have.

Elizabeth McMaster of Toronto changed the world.
Insulin, Pablum, and a sharp decline in infant mortality in Canada can be traced to her efforts to create a children's hospital in Toronto in the 1870s.
She dedicated herself to helping others and this is her story.
