The Gisha Legal Center for Freedom of Movement NGO rebuked “Israel for preventing the reconstruction of Gaza by restricting the supply of cement, water, sanitation and health care and electricity.”
Humanitarians pleaded that Israel let cement into Gaza. Israel let some in, for a British WWI memorial. Israel prepared to let more in for infrastructure. Then it learned that Hamas had seized some of the first shipment for its own bunkers and bases. Now Israel is reconsidering withholding the second shipment.
Hamas cynically exploits humanitarian sentiment to boost its military capability http://www.imra.org.il/ Independent Media Review Analysis, 8/16).
Meanwhile, anti-Zionists continue to blame Gaza’s plight entirely on Israel.
Weeks ago, I reported other Hamas theft of humanitarian aid. The humanitarians should denounce Hamas for stealing from civilians and spoiling their building plans. These tender hearts do not acknowledge Israel’s original need to embargo Gaza. Their sympathy is misplaced and unjust.
Many people are deceived by those humanitarian organizations and by the compliant media, which denounce Israel for defensive measures. They blame Israel, although the Palestinian Arabs signed a peace agreement with Israel but made war on it. Israel withdrew from Gaza to let its Arabs build what they want. No embargo, then… >>>
