In mid February, 2010 a Congressional delegation attempted to enter Gaza on a fact finding mission. The delegation, headed by Congressman William Delahunt was denied access to the territory by the Israeli government.
This video series is a virtual tour of the Gaza Strip, a tour the delegation might have had, indeed should have had.
