Is Israel has no legal obligation to feed or help these people. If we had turned off the power and water in Gaza we may not be in the situation we are in now.

the aids infected food the "evil"jews are sending into gaza

You reap what you sow. Vote for Hamas.... deal with the consequences. Don't make excuses.

well, well, well.... i guess the residents of hamastan may soon realize that its easier to blow something up than to build it. Its easier to be terrorists than to be statesmen. So... if you vote in terrorists, expect to have chaos, poverty, and misery. Lets see how Hamas will lead you into prosperity... should be interesting. If Shalit is not released... israel should squeeze the palestinians in gaza even more. Reap what you sow.

Israel supply food US supply guns to the ppl vowed to destroy them What will Israel get in return? Roses on the grave

*** 100 % Bravo my friend * * * It is very simple >>> Water + Food = Shalit The Idiot in Power are tooooo Nice ! As far as I see where is the UN, The EU, Russia, Iran ,Syria , Mr. Nasralah and the Vatican ? ? ? They should be rushing to give all this plus electricity to the PALS. Shalom from Houston Alberto

I'm so "glad" that he's willing to help the Palis. This way they can make more rockets & mortars that they can fire into Israel. Let's not forget gasoline for fire bombs and $$$ for more weapons. Is there anyone in the gov't who's normal or are they all out of their minds? What other country (besides the US) helps it's sworn enemies with $$$ & arms?

Stop donating to Israel! They'll soon learn to stop funding terrorism and antisemitism.

I have no more use for Fatah than you. I would not give Gaza any humanitarian aid because Egypt was able to supply Hamas with arms and should now supply them with food and water. All that I said is that the least condition for giving anything to Hamastan was the release of Shalit.

I agree with you partialy. We should stop any aid to the " UTOPIAN " Mr Olmert . We have now ...What ? A 3 States Solution. Please the World, Stop dreaming. This is Israel and the M.E. 2007 Ms. Rice, I hope you read this. It is time to go back to the drawing board. Oslo and all that JAZZ is dead 150% Shalom from Houston Alberto

Olmert doesnt have the inteligence or the will to trade Shalit for supplies he is to concerned about his good guy image abroad. Assad is being sidelined by the US, the UN is putting the preasure on him with the Rafik Harrir investigation an oportunity for Israel to push for peace on its terms but no Olmert doesnt take advantage of the soituation instead he tries to dig Assad out of the hole he is currently in and officialy says I AM WILLING TO GIVE YOU THE GOLAN IN FULL. The man wont take advantage of the Gaza situation to get Shalit back he will probably end up standing up for Hamas and calling for the international community to stop punishing Hamas because they overthrew Fatah in Gaza.

The mind boggles at the misplaced humanitarian impulses to feed and succor an enemy population. No matter how you spin this, the Palis elected Hamas, knew their platform, support suicide terror, advocate the destruction of Israel. We pulled out, allegedly, to let those folks fend for themselves. Why on earth are we insistent upon now supplying them goods through crossings that they have routinely bombed and kidnapped our soldiers from. Let the European goody goodies, the UK based academic unions, and the Arabs solve this problem. We owe these people NOTHING in return for their hatred and ill will. Any other view of the situation is wishful thinking. I think the Israeli leadership has gone mad, in addition to being stupid.

Israel should not give something for nothing in return, by feeding gaza you feed hama . Someone pointed out , england did not supply water and power to Germany never mind feed them during the battle of Britian

I am reading this article and visions of burning synagogues, pali's dancing in the street when Israeli's are killed, women and men suicide bombers blowing up babies, moms, dads...doesn't matter who as long as there jews. I remember the palestinian mom's showing off their child, the suicide bomber, the murderer, giving out candy, everyone patting each other on the back. I remember Furfur or whatever his name is teaching these young children to hate and to kill. I remember Arafat watching young children perform their skits as murdering martyrs. Everyday we see hamas or fatah or whomever with their faces covered and big guns and kassams marching through the streets killing even their own people. SHAME! No one in this whole entire world should have to live next to these people. If ever wickedness existed it is here and now. I don't understand how they pray 5 times a day and have no respect for other human beings. They need help now, they are worried about food? What about the people in Sderot!! What, you need energy to shoot off those rockets? Shame, shame, shame!

He is another appeasing fool of the Olmert camp that wants to give Israel away. Dont trust him. Not long ago he was pushing to talk peace with our enemy, Syria, and give up our precious Golan. Why are there so many traitors running this country?
