United States of America repeatedly and many times asked its people to avoid visiting the Gaza strip. Debra Ronca wrote on July 6th 2009, “The U.S. Department of State urges U.S. citizens to avoid the Gaza Strip completely and to remain mindful of security measures when traveling elsewhere in Israel.”

Ironically, a report issued only in June 2009, should false claims of Norwegian government. The report was published on Haartez and ranked the territories of Palestine and Israel as number 4 in terms of danger.

Proceeded only by Somalia, Afghanistan and Iraq; Palestinian territories and Israel got the 4th rank worldwide. A study of the world’s most peaceful countries released Wednesday ranks Israel as fourth to last among the 144 countries ranked.   According to the Global Peace Index, an annual ranking of the world’s nations on the basis of how peaceful they are, Somalia, Afghanistan and Iraq are the only countries more dangerous than Palestine and Israel.

More importantly, the decision of the Norwegian government ignored the existing problems between Fatah and Hamas. Many people failed victims on both of Gaza and West Bank and this could be a reason to debunk the allegation of the government which considers Gaza and West Bank as safe places.

It gives an impression to the whole world that Palestine is free, there is no occupation and only peace is prevailing while people still starving and dying for nothing.
