A Million Palestinians Threatened with Starvation

Monday, April 28th, 2008

woman.jpgThe Israelis already have the Gaza Strip under military siege, carefully controlling what and who goes in and out of it. They have now cut off most fuel, and the United Nations has been forced to stop distributing food aid.

This Israeli government action is an unvarnished war crime. It is known as collective punishment. There was already hunger and malnutrition among Palestinian children, which will now be worsened.

Hamas told Jimmy Carter it was ready to negotiate.

The Olmert government is not interested in negotiating, apparently, even though nothing the Likud and the Kadima “Likud Light” has done since 2001 has diminished the salience of the Gaza Muslim fundamentalist party, including a concerted campaign of murder, kidnapping, assault and collective punishment. Despite the violent groups on its margins, Hamas itself has at various points indicated a willingness to play ordinary politics, but Olmert will be satisfied with nothing less than destroying it. So far it isn’t going well for him.

Cutting off fuel to the Gazans and provoking a cut-off of UN food aid is not only criminal but also stupid. It is difficult to imagine such mean-spirited sanctions against civilians having any policy effect whatsoever, so they are just making Israel look bad.

Israeli ambassador to the UN Dan Gillerman called Carter a bigot for his diplomacy.

Gillerman called Hizbullah, an Arab party, “animals” in summer of 2006. Would he like to expand the reference to include other races? How many of us exactly are Untermenschen in his view? For Likudniks to call Jimmy Carter a “bigot” is sort of like the Ku Klux Klan denouncing Nelson Mandela for racial insensitivity.

    Yet again the PALESTINIANS suffer appaling HUMAN RIGHTS abuses on a daily basis and what for , just for being a bit pissed that someone laid claim to your homeland without your consent i might add then too add insult to injury then restricted not only movements within your own land but then actively stopped aid from reaching the poorest and that includes the sick , elderly and children! . Ok the PALESTINIANS have made many mistakes of their own but they have repeatedely been open too serious talks , while the UK and the US seem too look the other way . It appears that the only nuclear power in the middle east ISRAEL can do no wrong , that is unless you count STARVING A NATION TOO DEATH as wrong , i guess its all a matter of perspective , didnt we go too war with IRAQ for very similar reasons? . Just to make very clear i am not ANTI-ISRAEL just against blatant ABUSES OF HUMAN RIGHTS if ISRAEL treated the PALESTINIANS like human beings and not like dogs i would not be so outraged and angry! .

    After re-reading this post i realised that i had made a mistake towards the end of the post . Where it says that - Let me make this very clear i am not ANTI-ISRAEL - It should read ANTI-ISRAELIE as i have nothing against the people but clearly THE STATE OF ISRAEL is in my opinion ILLEGAL! . I appologise for any confusion but i am DYSLEXIC and often do not see my mistakes untill i have re-read a post several times . Simon! .

    This sounds like ethnic cleansing or better yet Genocide. The zionist movement is intentionally and maliciously cutting off food aid to kill hundred of Palestinians

    The US has gained much knowledge in how to manage an indigenous population(i.e the Iraqis)from the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian lands.
    I recently heard Hillary Clinton- the Democratic Presidential hopeful say, that if Iran attacked Israel, the US would “bomb” them into oblivion,or a similar sentiment.I think it is fairly obvious to many that Israel has been used as an American outposr in the Middle East for some time.
    Unfortunately, the needs of the Palestinians have been forsaken in this extremely basic power play.
