UN says Gaza on brink of humanitarian disaster     Reuters
1. O BOO HOO HOO
Here's a used kleenex you can use, now go away
Ran   (11.21.08)
2. UN's support of terrorism needs to stop
The UN has been actively funding Palestinian terrorism for years. Those Palestinians who birthed, fed, sheltered, clothed and otherwise supported Fatah, Hamas, PRC and other terrorists are by no means "innocent" civilians. Hitler's Gestapo had to be supported by families and communities that were, likewise, not "innocent" civilians.
Bennie ,   Jerusalem   (11.21.08)
3. They deserve it, they voted in Hamas
You reap what you sow
Good ,   Good   (11.21.08)
4. A real SHAME!
Inconceivable that the Gazan people will starve their own children before letting go of their deep hatred and beloved rockets
Keith ,   WV,USA   (11.21.08)
5. Best new I've heard all year !
With all the billions funneled into the sewer of Gaza by the incompetent world community ,there is no saving the rats. Lets hope STUPID Israel stops feeding and aiding those who live to destroy them.
Marcel ,   Florida   (11.21.08)
6. Let them eat missiles
No food but plenty of missiles and mortars? Then they can eat those!
Ron Jones ,   Boston USA   (11.21.08)
7. Israel does not control the Egypt-Gaza border
Go whine to the Egyptian. Arabs should get NOTHING from Israel. Not water, not electricity, and certainly not food.
KettleWhistle ,   israelforum.com   (11.21.08)
8. What about the Egyptian Border Crossing???
Why is there no mention of using the Egyptian side to transfer goods and services? The Arabs that pretend to be Palastinians are not starving at all.....a total scam! You seen on tv how fat their women are???
Jay ,   Israel   (11.21.08)
9. Give us back what doesn't belong to you
Namely, Gilad and you get to partake of a nice hot meal! How's that?
Talula ,   Israel   (11.21.08)
10. The sky is falling.
How many times are we going to hear this exact moronic statement already? Nobody and I repeat nobody has EVER straved in Gaza period. There is another border, we don't have to let anything in from our country. The Arabs have had a blockade up for 60 years yet the UN has said nothing. In the past 2 years over 2 million people have straved in Dafur and the Congo. Yet the number of UN people helping them is less than 1/1,000th of a percent than are feeding the Arabs. We have no obligation to the Arabs. That is international law.

11. Mullahs For the Pope, Hamas for Krauts
Would someone please enlighten me. I admit to not understand this situation? Egypt and Gaza have a joint border They are both fellow bros (Muslims), and I think Sunni at that. Yet that side is closed? Explain someone. Over 4m "refugees", What? Since when are people never having lived in a country, refugees? In my definition, few actual refugees (going back to 48) are alive today. With Saudi Arabia's coffers overflowing with 148.00 barrel sales of oil, why does the US contribute one dime to UNRWA? Hamas can equip terrorist cells with rockets (to hit Jews), yet pleads poverty and starvation to the world? If the UN is concerned about poor growth, why not pressure the Arabs to stop the rocket launches? The world, similar to WW2 (Pope said nothing) blames the Jews for their own destruction. Nothing has changed, but the players., Arabs for Krauts, Mullahs for the Pope. Deja vu.

12. Their children won't be bigger than their parents
That's good, because their parents are a little too big for their britches.
Richard ,   Baltimore, MD   (11.21.08)
13. and whose fault is it?
hamastan is what hamastan does.... israel cna do 2 things--- go in there and wipe them all out, or pressure them economically.. and if they don't like it... they can dring the water of the sea near gaza.......
oded   (11.21.08)
14. And in the mean time the south gets bombed
Ben ,   London, UK   (11.21.08)
15. UN says Gaza on brink of humanitarian disaster
the UN is the disaster if the UN was realy concerned for the poor innocent gazans they could easily get the so desperately needed food to the starving through Egypt
Yonatan ,   Jerusalem   (11.21.08)
16. Is Ms Abizaid saying that the Gaza "crisis"worse than Congo?
Alan ,   SA   (11.21.08)
17. the only wealth status for them
the arabs lets be fair the do not like to be called palestinians because real palestinians are the jews!!. they love to invest in fat woman lot of food so they can bring more jihadists! birth machine!!
vienna ,   vienna   (11.21.08)
18. world must denounce rocketing Israeli town, or
Israel will exterminate 1.5 million en mass.
Livni   (11.21.08)
19. I DO NOT CARE ABOUT ANYBODY IN GAZA WHILE ROCKETS FALL...
...on Sderot! If Gazans want Israel to help, then they should get rid of Hamas. If not, they should be looking to the Rafah crossing and wait for humanitarian help from EGYPT's direction! And of course, they can expect Israel to hit back (eventually) when the rockets attacks on the Israeli communities and towns around Gaza will be too much to bear. UN is barking at the wrong gate - let it bark at Egypt and Hamas.
The Doc ,   Haifa, Israel   (11.21.08)
20. funny GAZANS MADE THIS CHOICE AND LIBERALS CONDEMNED ISRAEL
YOU CAN LEAD A HORSE TO WATER BUT YOU CANT MAKE HIM DRINK.. THE ARABS OCCUPYING ISRAEL WERE GIVEN ALL THE NESSISITIES BY ISRAEL AND THE WORLD, YES THEY GOT $$$ ALSO. AND THEY LOOK HEALTHY AND STRONG, hamas shows videos of them learning terroist tactics, they dont look deprived at all. maybe, just maybe hamas is intentionally starving a few families to show the media.... lets face it if hamas can dig their hands into a living jewish man and tear out his heart then through himout the window in rammallah, then hamas is capable of doing anything, wha? its fatah not hamas..its who? YOU MEAN THERE IS A DIFFERENCE? THANK YOU DACON9 jewswithviews@gmail.com

21. Gaza is paying the price of genocide. Cry me a river
Darren ,   Oakland, CA   (11.21.08)
22. U.N. is on the brink of disaster
Where were the European nations during the Holocaust? Or perhaps they just hated the Jews and did not want to help them. Now they again show their true colors and act against the Jewish Security. European mind your own business you have nothing for us. United Nations (aka United Arab Nations) nothing new here they hate Jews no question asked. With that in mind U.N. E.U. you are worthless to our security.

23. War
The Arabs occupying Gaza are waging war against Israel. Israel is not responsible for the care and feeding of the monsters who are trying to murder her citizens. The UN is a hypocritical, lying, hate mongering supporter of the terrorists who lust for the annihilation of Israel and the extermination of the Jewish people. I have only 2 words for Ki-Moon, but neither one will be printed here.
Douglas Miller ,   Detroit, USA   (11.21.08)
24. Stop buying GRAD rockets and start feeding your children
Cynic ,   USA   (11.21.08)
25. Sometimes Fault Does Matter
Cause and effect. Hamas and the Palestinians build rockets, weapons tunnels and bombs instead of farming, building industry and creating jobs. Hamas the palestinians shoot rockets at israeli cities and preach the destruction of Israel. Of course Israel will shut down the borders. the Palestinians are lucky israels current government is so weak or gaza would cease to exist, When palestinians forsake violence, the borders will open and the UN's concerns will go away. Until then Cause and effect

26. Ban Ki Moon
Ban Ki Moon has changed his name to Kak-Im-Un, just to please the Israelis
Arthur ,   Houston   (11.21.08)
27. does anyone ever wonder that the palestinians are the only
refugee status left on the planet. people from other social disasters have been accepted and assimilated into other countries, work, produce, educate their children and move on. also, anwra is the only agency in the world that is still feeding, clothing and caring for these refugees. i wonder why? can't they build? can't they educate themselves? can't they farm and work the feilds like the jews?, can't they build government and social institutions that are viable? i guess when you have a babysitter all your life and the neighborhood never expects you to own up to your responsibility and become independent, productive, working for money, then there is a problem. the child grows up thinking he's ENTITLED to all the free gifts, to free food, to free cloths and free everything. why then should these babies work and produce? they become stunted children. the "siege" is not stunting their children sir. the siege is protecting the killers from coming to kill the workers in the viable jewish areas and neighborhoods. it is unfortunate that the arab nations started putting the refugees in camps sieges, later in gaza and jordan sieges and when they realized what a problem these babies are, the arab nations were only too happy to not want to accept gaza and west bank back after the israelis offered them these areas after the war. i don't blame them. why should they have to deal with these animals. better israel to deal with them so that they can erode her step by step through terror. shame on the arab nations. shame on anwra for perpetuating this dependance, this shameful perpetuation of victimhood and then blaming our nation for their disaster.

28. Choice of what to do with all the money the palis get
Spend it on terrorism or invest in peace. Looks like they made their choice!
Arie ,   BaGolan   (11.21.08)
29. F...them....Not a shekel, a grain of food or a drop of fuel.
Until they stop rocketing us. Period.

30. un gaza starving
No, they are not starving at all and if they are, its hamas' fault .Hamas fires rockets at israel and then runs to the UN. Very good.UN stay out of gaza,they can handle things themselves. Anyways, if they are starving, so what, who cares.I do agree with hamas about the present government, they are scared of hamas no doubt about it.
