In giving thanks this Thursday, give a small thought to what you people are doing to the million and a half Palestinians of Gaza. I`m now watching a live program being broadcast from a Gaza hospital and it`s not a pretty sight; there are children and elderly people crying in pain for lack of sedatives and they have fuel for 2 more days to run the generators for the dialysis machines. Give a small thought to the 3 fishing trawlers that you confiscated last Monday leaving the whole population with only 9 remaining ones to fish in the polluted offshore waters. Think of the brave UK activist Andrew Muncie that was abducted by Israel that is held in jail today because he accompagnied the fishermen so they wouldn`t be shot at by the IDF. Think of the 20 millions spent a couple of nights back on a Dubai hotel opening ceremonies and fireworks while the people of Gaza rummage through the garbage for food. And try not to choke on your kosher turkey.
