Denied an identity, Gazans losing hope in land of despair

Context added by this archive
A year before the intifada, a Florida paper putting the thing itself in the first two words: denied an identity. The sentence has no one denying it, and the last four words turn the place into a mood. But the claim in the opening is the one this whole archive is about, and it was printable in Palm Beach in December 1986.
