As Palestinians
and humanitarians around the world marked 300 days of horror in Gaza, an aid
organization highlighted a pernicious consequence of Israel's nearly 10-month

many who arrived to give blood to help those wounded by bombs and bullets
because the potential donors themselves were too malnourished and sick.
