Red Thingy Allows Smugglers to Use Its Services
2004-07-10
Israel plans to file a formal complaint with the International Red Thingy Cross regarding smuggling of forbidden items to terrorists in its shipments. A shipment of clothing brought to the Ayalon Prison in a Red Thingy Cross truck this week was found to contain a cellular telephone, intended for one of the terrorists held in the facility. The telephone was found in the sole of a sneaker. Red Thingy Cross officials explain that their organization is only the courier, and is not responsible for materials to be delivered prior to its reception at the Red Thingy Cross. Israeli officials report that this is the second time a Red Thingy Cross shipment was found to contain prohibited items intended for prisoners.

#5  If the Red Cross is arguing that they are only a courier, I'm sure they will not mind having responsible adults stop their ambulances and deliveries to check for contraband.

#3  Michelle Malkin slammed the Red Thingy for this in a June 2nd story, too.

MSM ever report this? Naw, of course not.
