#2 Language, Angleton9. I sinktrapped your comment because we do not use racist language at Rantburg. Think of this as a "Drop and give me 200!" kind of warning. I'm sure it wouldn't take you the two hours it took me to accomplish that, the last time I tried.

#3 Meshaal talks really tough from his hidey-hole in Damascus. Why don't you fly to Cairo and talk sh*t about it, tough guy?

#4 "...The Gaza Strip has been under an Israeli siege ever since Hamas resistance movement, which does not recognize Israel, won Parliamentary elections in 2007..."

Actually, the elections were in 2006. In June 2007, Hamas waged a 3 day war (or a 'cleansing' as its call by Hamas) against Fatah and took over all administrative functions of the Gaza (perhaps Iran considers this an election). After this 3 day war, the Israelis took strong measures to reinforce the border and increase the blockage (which was partially in effect before that).

Better yet, have the tough guy talk to us from Gaza City ...

#6 The last sentence was not complete. I shall attempt to complete it now.

"Some 1.5 million people are being denied their basic rights, including freedom of movement, a right to appropriate living conditions, work, health and education", because they repeatedly attack and shoot rockets into Israeli civilian areas.
