GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — If the archeological sites in Gaza could talk, they would scream for help against the desecration to which they are being subjected by human hands. Some are being demolished, and new homes are built in their place. Others are being looted or neglected.
The Muslim and Christian archeological sites in Palestine are hundreds, maybe even thousands, of years old.
