just think what might happend if the virus well go to the palestinian athority, they don't have the means to cope with the swine epidemic.

the very posible scenario either, but any epidemic, will spread so fast to Israel side, as well, than everyone will suffer, it's a ticking time bomb unless Israel(as usuall cause noone else will do the dirty job) provide the gazans with the medical care, and unless Hamas will let the gazans get medical care in the Israely side(witch they won't do so quickly as ego won't let them) and then every one will blame Israel for it all and all the blockad privent that for now but in the eng it will be in Hamas own hands.

Shulamit: ghostq has a very valid point. To date the deaths from latest flu epi/pan demic are in ares (not necessarily counties) with poor standards of health care. Areas of central America, Africa & even ares of middle east are definitely at risk. Dont mess with nature!!

with all due respect to the WHO we have much greater threats to our public. nobody in the world cared when sderot was totally shut down for months because of hundreds of missiles from gaza, right? lets deal with this first. a little flu can wait.

sick bastard. do you support gazans? are u leftist? if so then u are the sick bastard not ghostq. +

I couldn't care aless bout gaza, viruses don't care either, you think a virus can make a difference between Israely and palestinian populations, will a virus can stop if there will be a sign, Of corse not, this situation will cause the virus to spread so fast into the Israely area, how much Israel prepared for the flu who knows?

Ghostq I am so glad that you admit that Gaza is blockaded! I wish more jews would face reality like you do. From now on, I will quote you and refer to your heading "Gaza is in BLOCKADE".

...but my boss worked the blockade for her time in the IDF and she caught ambulances and "pregnant" women smuggling bombs. So....I can't really argue against the blockade.

Yes, there is a blockade in Gaza, Yes, flu flu is dangerous Yes, Israel is a Jewish country Yes, 1431 is less than 5769 you are late and late your are !!!
