The rest of the stalls were being manned by someone who wasn't the boss so couldn't give me stuff.

Apart from a joint stall of cakes and hot grilled sausage sandwiches who said it was owned by Israelis and giving anything to me was too contentious:

"We don't want to give money to Hezbollah. Its a shame they (the Palestinians) won't share the land 50:50"

[Incidentally Hezbollah originates in Lebanon not Gaza/ Palestine.]

I explained that the aid is humanitarian and consists of medical supplies, stationery, toys and the crisis has been caused by a blockade on Gaza borders but I was told the borders aren't closed. News to me! Perhaps they should read: http://www.map-uk.org/regions/uk/news/view/-/id/485/
