UN calls for action to end fuel shortage aggravating Gaza health crisis

The U N are idiots.There is no feul shortage of feul for hospitals.However the hamas leaders steal as much as they want without compassion because they know the fools in the U N will supply more on humantarian grounds.

The holes in his white sheet. Sadly, he thinks we act as his KKK buddies do. "possibility that Israel will accept less than the eradication of the Palestinians", ignores the fact of repeated offers of peace from Israel and repeated confirmations of war from the Pals. Rather, his eye holes don't let him see past his copy of the Protocols. Notice how he never quite explains how "eradication" equates to an order of magnitude growth of Arab populations within Israel and the disputed terroritories. "superior race", how Aryan of you. Have your cross ready to burn in someone's lawn? "moral fiber of Nazi Germany" it's no surprise a follower of David Duke thinks the Nazis had moral fiber. "slow extermination", repeating the ignorant avoidance of the strong population growth while ignoring the disappearance of non-Muslims from the PA, Arab nations and many other Muslim countries. Mark still thinks that Muslims and his skinhead buddies should be friends until the Jews are destroyed. How sad

That is the only action that will create an arena where Israel and the Pals can have strong economic relations. Until they change, they live with their choice.

Israel needs to secure her own borders and stop the rockets coming into Sderot and elsewhere. If this means a humanitarian crisis in Gaza, so be it! Any fuel that gets across will somehow be diverted to missiles instead of civilian use. Also Israel needs to make an example of Gaza to prevent problems in Judea and Samaria.

Why would you even think of trading with an enemy entity? You just make them stronger. Wake up! Bretware

I would put a dog out of its misery if there was no chance of it ever being free of pain and well again. That would be a something I would not enjoy doing, but it would be the kindest thing I could do. It is very clear that the Israeli and American right will never be overthrown by their respective left because their respective left has no idea that they have been crushed in a duel to the death. Thus as there is no possibility that Israel will accept less than the eradication of the Palestinians, and no possibility that America will ever allow the world to prevent the eradication of the Palestinians, then the world must accept those facts. As the Palestinians are to be eradicated to make living room for the superior race, then the only question is how much they must suffer in the process of being eradicated. The Israeli right lacks the moral fiber of Nazi Germany and will not simply set up extermination camps. Rather it pursues a policy of slow extermination which is inhumane.

The Israeli Courts want a damage assessment first on the effects cutting off the power would have. Besides, these power cuts would be intermittent, not an all out blackout. Do try to get your facts straight.

...oil and fuel for their "brothers"? Where's YOUR donation? Or are you above all that, hmm? Talk a good fight, but do you do anything? Worse than useless.

The UN can shit in one hand and wish in the other. Guess which gets full first? The program of the Olmert Government (operating under Veto Protection of Resident Bush) is determined to use the opportunity present to cause the death of as many residents of Gaza as possible and to starve as many as it can. The UN can - and will - do nothing. I don't even know why they are bothering. It just shows how weak and ineffectual the organization is. And only an idiot draws attention to how weak and ineffectual he is.

till it happens, every velve should be closed. No ifs or buts.Every normal country would demand this unconditionaly. Only Israel,the only country in the world, will supply those saviges with goody,while living under fire from them. Mind bugling situation.

Just the gasoline from the Saudi yachts sitting in marinas in the US, Europe, Asia and Afric would be enough to run Gaza for years. There is nothing quite as tender in this world as the tender care extended to their Palestinian brothers and sisters by the Arab nations of this world. They talk a great fight. They reward the families of suicide bombers. They con morons like POP into believeing they are righteous but they do NOTHING to alter the terrible cycle they have let the Palestinians spin in for 60 years. It is shocking that Palestinians still have an iota of trust for any of these sycophant dictators and their loony bombast.

necessary medical treatment outside of the territory? The Palestinians have no problem smuggling in weapons and allowing terrorists to flow through Egypt; I am sure they can do the same with their sick. Of course, what they are really complaining about is that they won't be able to recieve the excellent treatment that they can get at an Israeli hospital, payments covered by Israeli citizens.

have the Arab League alleviate the misery by donating their ample oil supply or by pressuring their Hamas brothers to free Shalit (instead of welcoming them with open arms - i.e. Saudi Arabia). the Palestinians made their beds and now they will have to lie in it,...in the dark and cold.

"...partly caused by Israel sanctions..."? There would be no crisis had not Israel, as part of its famine campaign against the Palestinians, had not cut off the flow of fuel and electricity to Gaza.

A No Brainer...Stop the rockets, return Shalit and the gas will flow. The UNRWA may be concerned about Pal misery, Hamas is not.

Since Kassams are fueled with EU and UNRWA-supplied sugar and nitrate fertilizer, Israel should charge EU and UNRWA a 10% "user fee" on all aid shipments for Gaza sent through Israeli ports, and use it to assist Sderot victims. Alternatively, these "donors" can eliminate all sugar products (which are not needed for human nutrition at all) and all nitrate crop fertilizer from Gaza shipments (there are substitutes), until there is verified end to Kassam production and firing. Likewise, fuel shipments should remain cut until there is reliable verification it is only used for hospital generators, and not diverted to Hamas. Gaza ambulances can refuel at Erez crossing, and run for weeks on a tank. Use GPS trackers to insure no diversion of petrol to Hamas rocket transport trucks. Problem solved. If Hamas refuses these sort of measures, no fuel.

Let the UN build a hospital in Sinai and take all sick Gazans out of the war zone they created and let them be treated there.

The similarities to the Warsaw ghetto grow more by the day. Our Israeli friends learned well from their masters. The end game however will be the same.

endanger lives. until it recognizes this it is uselss entity.

The E.U. is only worried about the arabs. Jewish blood has always been cheap to Europe.

makes Gaza look like the Garden of Eden.
