Hamas' Ismail Haniya visits Egypt for Gaza siege talks
[Al Jazeera] The head of Paleostinian group Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",, Ismail Haniya, has travelled to Cairo to hold talks with senior Egyptian officials about the blockade of Gazoo, on his first such visit since his election in May.Hamas controls the Gazoo Strip, a densely populated coastal territory that shares borders with Egypt and Israel, with which it has fought three wars since 2008. For much of the last decade, Egypt has joined Israel in enforcing a crippling blockade that has deprived the enclave's roughly two million inhabitants of most basic commodities, including food, fuel and medicine.
