32. 111 Trucks loaded with TV's ...........

Arutz Sheva - IsraelNationalNews.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From Arutz 7 09:30 Jun-08-06 / 12 Sivan 5766 111 Trucks Loaded With Televisions Entered the Gaza Strip Thursday, June 8, 2006 / 12 Sivan 5766 (IsraelNN.com) Even as the Palestinian Authority puts forth claims of a humanitarian crisis in Gaza, 111 trucks loaded with televisions bound for Arab retailers have entered the Gaza Strip in the last two weeks. The televisions, imported by Israelis and resold to PA importers for sale to end users, were shipped through the Karni Crossing. The upswing in television purchases in the PA is apparently related to the start of the soccer World Cup in Europe, which is broadcast throughout the Middle East. An IDF spokesman confirmed the report from Karni and added that 400 trucks loaded with food and medicines enter the Gaza Strip every day. Foreign Minister Tzippy Livni yesterday told American envoy David Welch that the Hamas-led PA government refused Israel's offer of 50 million shekels worth of medicines, instead demanding that Israel provide the cash equivalent from out of the tax revenue Israel began withholding since the Hamas took over the PA.

If the Arabs had not tried to setroy Israel in 1948, 1967 and 1973 yjere would be no problem. Until 1967 the West Bank was ruled by Jordan and Gaza by Egypt. As for UN resolutions, what about 183 which was the resolution which founded Israel and has only been recognises by Egypt & Jordan and no other Arab country? Resolution 242 said Israel should give up land in return for recognition and normalization of relations with the Arab world. So far not much movement from the Arab side then.

What about all the Palestinians who bought goods from private israeli merchants during the last 10 years and never paid? Should they pay? And should Hamas pay for the damages to schools, greenhouses, malls,cafes, buses that are caused by your suicide bombers?

So it is Israel's fault that Palestinian leaders or whoever gets the medicine sell it back to their people at high prices??? It is Israel's fault that your leaders do this to your people. Your reasoning is dumb!!! Israel wants to provide medicine, Palestinians refuse...that's the story, stop trying to twist it around and bend it in your favor. You keep denying reality and making up bullshit excuses for the way Palestinians act...it's really sad.

1. I could not find such a statement, please show me the link. 2. So you don't eat food from Israel either? Do you insist that all products labeled in Arabic? Chances are that computer you are using, and the server this website is on is using Israeli designed chips or software. Would you deny your babies nutrition or medication? 3. Do you really think Israel should give Hamas ANYTHING? They proclaim they are bitter enemies, don't they? Haven't they called for Israel's destruction?

44. Medicine Refusal
Robert Gutman ,   Durham NC USA   (06.09.06)
I know that when I show the pro-Palestinian Jews (and there are distressly frequent) in my community this important article, they will claim the medicines were useless. I am a physician and would appreciate knowing the names of the medicines offered. Thanks
45. PA reufsal to accept medicine in lieu of cash
Ester Winter ,   Lavi, Israel   (06.11.06)
This Palestinian refusal to accept medicine is outrageous. Their aims for the money are clearly not to alleviate the situation of their citizens. This should be broadcast high and wide. Let us hear of this disgusting refusal to accept aid from all the international media - the Palesinian approach to money is not what it is purported to be......
