| [An Nahar] Thousands of Paleostinians have fled their homes but have nowhere safe to shelter from Israeli On the other hand, the rocket supply seems to be okay. Over 120,000 people are displaced but are prevented from escaping violence because borders with Israel and Egypt are shut, Oxfam said. "The terrible toll on civilians is shocking. Hospitals and water supplies are under massive strain and the needs are increasing by the day. People are fleeing terrified," said Nishant Pandey, Oxfam's head in Occupied Paleostinian Territory and Israel. Normally such crises would cause people to flee the area, but this was impossible as the blockade prevented people escaping the violence, Pandey said. "Lasting peace and security for both sides means ending the blockade and the collective punishment of people in Gazoo." The charity said water supplies were disrupted to over one million people, raw sewage was at risk of contaminating the water due to the destruction of sanitation plants, and only half of Gazoo's sewage plants are working. Much of the area, a densely populated strip of land along the Mediterranean Sea, has electricity for four hours a day or less, Oxfam said.

| #5 Start a war and then wonder why it explodes in your face? Crap in your hat and then wear it. Ask me if I feel sorry for you. "The terrible toll on civilians is shocking." Hamas calls that a "victory". Would anything satisfy Hamas? What would satisfy Hamas? Think real hard. The Israelis should do to Hamas what Hamas wants to do to them. The rest of the world is like John Kerry. It will still eat it's Lunch. Make a loud noise, riot 9,000 miles away...but then eat a comfortable Lunch. |
