Israel refused to reopen crossings or allow crucial fuel supplies into Gaza on Monday, despite UN warnings that vital food aid could be suspended within days.

#3  No way. Then humanitarian aid would consist of long range missiles and armor. At least with smuggling tunnels there is a size limit to the weapons they can push through.

#2  The last time I looked, Gaza had a coast. Maybe they could use their surplus guns, launchers, etc. and construct a Mulberry.

Maybe I've missed it, but I haven't seen a single word in the MSM about how stocks of fuel for hospital generators have been squandered elsewhere or are being held political hostage, along with the folks who could use the services of their hospitals right about now.

Is Israel also refusing to allow Egypt to ship some diesel in for these generators?

And they are mad at Israelis? Look within, proud Paleostinian idiots. As usual, there is no thought behind your anger. You should all be marching to your leaders houses with molotov cocktails in hand and gathering up every rock and bit of rubble along the way for use when you get there. They did this to you, and you have allowed this to be done to you, either actively or passively.

Get your guns. Snipe the bad guys. Turn them in. Cut their tires and brake lines. Kill their kids. Anything to make their lives miserable.

And Israel should be doing their best to help take tips. Make the same number they call to get permission to work in Israel or to get hospital treatment work also for taking tips. Safety in numbers for those who turn in the bad guys.
