calfoxwc Posted June 20, 2010 Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 Let's see. Libs are whining that the Israeli blockade to stop arms trafficing to Hamas, is starving the Palestinians in Gaza. Check. But we told them that the Israelis are only checking for arms, and is transporting the other goods to Gaza. But the libs didn't listen. Check. Now, Hamas is refusing to accept the goods for the Palestinians, which will starve the Palestinians. Check. But now, liberals don't care if the Palestinians starve if it isn't Israel's fault. Che... WHAT? Totally bogus "feelings" by libs. ********************************* Hamas Stopping Transfer of Aid to Gaza by Gil Ronen The Hamas government in Gaza is apparently not interested in receiving the goods that were carried by the 'humanitarian' Turkey-sponsored flotilla Israel intercepted. The IDF Spokesman said Wednesday that "As of right now, the State of Israel has loaded 20 trucks with various types of aid found onboard the flotilla. Expired medication, clothing, blankets, some medical equipment and toys were among the aid found on the ships." "Unfortunately, the Hamas terror organization is unwilling to accept the cargo and the trucks filled with humanitarian aid have not been allowed to enter the Gaza Strip. It appears that Hamas is in fact stopping the transfer of the humanitarian aid. if (sCountry!='IL'&&aAdSource[2]==1) {var cD=new Date();var cR=(new Date()%8673806982)+Math.random(); var c = ''; document.write('<IMG style=display:none src=http://click.inn.co.il/phpAds'+'New-en-'+'new/adl'+'og.php?b'+'a'+'nnerid=1237&clien'+'tid=711&zo'+'neid=17&sou'+'rce=&block=0&cap'+'ping=0&cb=75a95650f9a155d73d3386f577c9&csds='+cR+' width=0>');} else {document.write(''); sZones+=",17";sIDs+=",InContentAd"}Security sources said that supplies from the flotilla continue to be taken off the seven ships that participated in it, and that truckloads of medical supplies, toys and clothing have already reached the Kerem Shalom crossing between Israel and Gaza. However, Hamas and Gaza based aid agencies are not responding, so far, to Israeli calls to come and get the goods.If Hamas refuses to take the supplies, Israel's spokesmen will be able to point to this as further proof that the naval convoy was meant for propaganda and provocation purposes only, and was not truly carrying vital aid at all. Minister of Information Yuli Edelstein pointed out on a Fox News interview Wednesday that the total tonnage carried by the flotilla (about ten tons) is much less than the amount of aid Israel transfers into Gaza every week (about eighteen tons). Ever since it took over Gaza in 2007, the Hamas government has been notorious for its shameless manipulation and lying, in a ceaseless effort to portray Gaza as a humanitarian disaster zone and to blame Israel – which is viewed as an 'advanced' economy – for this situation. One of the more notorious Hamas bluffs was the holding of government sessions by candlelight when Israel was being blamed for electricity shortages in Gaza. The local media representatives, who are terrorized by Hamas or sympathize with it, cooperated with the bluff, but sharp-eyed bloggers noticed that there was sunlight coming in through the curtains that covered the windows when the 'candlelight' picture was taken.

Alo Posted June 20, 2010 Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 I'm glad Israel is going to release a public list of items permitted to enter Gaza. In addition to allowing greater humanitarian and reconstruction aid into that hellhole, the new policy will allow Israel to call bullshit whenever Hamas doesn't give out the supplies. This is something Israel should have done a long time ago. Its previously policy was incredibly counterproductive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
