SHATI REFUGEE CAMP, Gaza Strip (AP) -- Gazans seeking food aid walked away empty-handed from locked United Nations distribution centers Saturday after a strict Israeli border closure depleted U.N. food reserves.
Israel sealed Gaza's borders nearly two weeks ago as part of a new round of fighting with Gaza's Hamas rulers. Hamas rocket fire on Israeli border towns and Israeli air strikes on Gaza militants have eroded a truce that had largely held for five months.
U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon called on Israel to open the crossings to humanitarian aid and condemned the rocket fire on Israel. Measures that increase the suffering of Gaza's civilians "are unacceptable and should cease immediately," he said in a statement.
I wonder if the the scribes detailing the Obama Epoch will find room for attribution of the Israeli War Crimes Trials of 2010. I find it hard to believe that he said, "F**k the lot of those who have sinned using G_d's name." That allegedly happened when he was told that only he could stop the trails the way that Clinton did in '99 when the UN General Assembly's Tenth Emergency Special Session recommended the High Contracting Parties to the Fourth Geneva [Civilian] Convention meet in Geneva on July 15 to discuss enforcement of the Convention with regard to Israeli settlement activities.
Will markets do more than marking Israeli grown fruits? how about electronics built or designed in Israeli factories? Who will answer the claims that the Palestinians who work in those factories get hurt the worst?
Just seeing the coma-tossed Sharon on the gurney in the courtroom, with the skinny Clinton and 2 other US Presidents and a handful of Israeli Prime Ministers each standing in line as the charges were read. Jews and Palestinians all over the world cried, some for different reasons. Never underestimate their intelligence, always underestimate their knowledge.
