A Palestinian smuggler moves goats through a tunnel between Egypt and the southern Gaza Strip under the border in Rafah, December 5, 2008. The Muslim holiday of Eid al-Adha, or the Feast of the Sacrifice which commemorates Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son for God starts December 8. According to Muslim tradition, after Abraham expresses his willingness, God sends the prophet two sheep instead for slaughter. Israel's tightening Gaza blockade, a response to Palestinian militant rocket fire, has led to frequent blackouts throughout Gaza and resulted in shortages of food, supplies and even cash.
