The Generous Israelis

That's the way the AP makes it sound (puke).

After a while, I just get tired of the Zionist bias.

No swearing, no language. Just posting.

"Gaza sees the goods as truce holds up; Trucks carry food, diapers, clothes" by Ibrahim Barzak, Associated Press | June 23, 2008

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - Israel allowed dozens of trucks to deliver food, diapers, and clothes to the Gaza Strip yesterday, boosting the flow of basic goods as part of a four-day-old truce with Hamas militants.

Further increases are expected if the quiet continues....

I don't expect that to happen.

CUI BONO?

Yesterday, 90 truckloads of supplies were transferred from Israeli to Palestinian vehicles at a Gaza crossing, up from between 60 and 70 before the truce went into effect, said military spokesman Gil Karie.

That's what the Israeli says; I'll need confirmation.

Ihab Ghussen, a spokesman for the Hamas-controlled Interior Ministry in Gaza, said other goods barred from Gaza during a yearlong economic blockade, like cement, are supposed to be allowed in 10 days after the beginning of the truce....

Among goods shipped yesterday were milk, fruit, vegetables, diapers, toilet paper, and shoes, Palestinian security officials said. The amount of fuel sent into Gaza remained unchanged yesterday. Israel had slashed fuel shipments in response to attacks from Gaza, leading to a severe shortage and crippling transportation in the territory.

Israeli government spokesman Mark Regev said fuel supplies would be increased at a later stage, but he did not say how much or when....

And that is really the trick, isn't it?

As we know here in AmeriKa, FUEL is the LIFE-BLOOD of the whole she-bang!

Can't do much without POWER!

Khaled Mashaal, the exiled leader of Hamas, told reporters in Syria yesterday that the militant group is committed to the truce as long as Israel is.

I don't imagine that to be very long: The Gaza Rocket Squads
