In this Oct. 5, 2010 photo, construction trucks are seen behind a Palestinian flag at the site for the Palestinian urban project Rawabi in the village of Atara, near the West Bank city of Ramallah. It is billed as a symbol of the future Palestine: a modern, middle-class city of orderly streets, parks and shopping plazas rising in the hills of the West Bank, ready for independence, affluence and peace. But the $800-million project has hit a snag: Palestinians say construction of the city of Rawabi depends on getting an access road, which can't go ahead without Israeli permission.

In this photo taken Wednesday, Sept. 29, 2010, Mohammed Abu Lela, 7, plays on a swing in front of his family's tent, in Beit Lahiya, northern Gaza Strip. Four months after Israel eased its Gaza blockade, several dozen stalled international aid projects worth tens of millions - from sewage treatment plants to wells - are slowly beginning to move forward. But one of the biggest needs in rebuilding the territory of 1.5 million Palestinians remains unmet - Gazans cannot rebuild thousands of badly needed homes destroyed in Israeli military offensives because Israel keeps a tight lid on importing cement and steel.
