  2. Just for scale and perspective, here's how the size of the Gaza Strip compares with major Australian metro areas.

    Sydney: Cronulla to Narrabeen.

    Western Sydney: Castle Hill to Campbelltown.

    (You can comfortably fit one Gaza in Western Sydney, a second from the southern suburbs to the Northern Beaches, and still have plenty of room to spare.)

    Melbourne: Werribee and Tarneit to Epping and Campbellfield.

    Canberra: Roughly the same area.

    Gold Coast: Roughly the same area.

    Brisbane: Brisbane Airport to near Ipswich.

    Adelaide: Port Adelaide to Morphett Vale.

    Perth: Joondalup to Fremantle.
