The head of Hamas political bureau, Khaled Meshaal, says the
construction of an enormous metal barrier by Egypt equals a
new war against Gazans.

In a statement televised by Al-Quds satellite channel,
Meshaal echoed remarks made by United Nations Relief and
Works Agency Commissioner-General Karen Abu Zaid, describing
the wall as more dangerous than the Bar Lev Line.

Israel built the Bar Lev Line along the eastern coast of the
Suez Canal after it captured the Sinai Peninsula from Egypt
during the 1967 Six-Day War.

Khaled Meshaal said "the victory of Gaza did not appeal to
those who wagered on the defeat of the resistance and there
is a desire to tighten the screws on the resistance which
shows fortitude in the face of the occupation."

The Damascus-based Hamas leader underlined that despite all
these efforts resistance will continue in the coastal
enclave .

In a related incident, hundreds of people gathered on the
Palestinian side of Gaza's southern border with Egypt on
Monday, protesting the underground barrier Egypt is
building.

The demonstrators chanted slogans calling for a lift of an
Israeli blockade imposed more than two years ago and urged
Egypt to stop building the steel wall.

The wall would curb a network of underground tunnels the
Palestinians use to bring in their basic necessities that
Israel does not allow into Gaza markets.

Receiving full cooperation of the Egyptian authorities,
Israel has long imposed a complete siege on the already
impoverished Gaza Strip, causing a humanitarian crisis in
the Palestinian sliver.

The Gaza Strip has been under an Israeli siege ever since
Hamas resistance movement, which does not recognize Israel,
won Parliamentary elections in 2007.

Some 1.5 million people are being denied their basic rights,
including freedom of movement, a right to appropriate living
conditions, work, health and education.

A government, of Israel, by Israel, and, for: Israel.
But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light:
for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. The light shineth in darkness;
and the darkness comprehended it not. The light of the body is the eye:
if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness.
If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead,
and Christ shall give thee light. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
