1. See how that works?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.17.14)
If someone pays the electrical bill, the electricity flows. That's a good precedent. Now, who is going to pay for the fresh water supplied to Gaza? Who is going to pay for the hundreds of thousands of metric tons of humanitarian aid supplied by Israel on a weekly basis? Why should Israel pay for the upkeep of an entity sworn to its destruction? Perhaps Qatar? Then again, it doesn't really matter, as long as someone pays the bill. Now, having set the precedent, who is going to pay the considerable debts racked up by the "Palestine" Authority? They've been leeching off Israel for years. Time someone paid those bills, too. Fair warning: they are considerable. But -- here, again -- why should the State of Israel provide any services at all to an entity bent upon its destruction; an entity that refuses to acknowledge Israel's existence and its character as a Jewish state?
2. Tragic and wretched Hand to Mouth Existence for Gazans
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (03.17.14)
Simply because Hamas want to impose THEIR Self Declared Permanent State of War with Israel IN PERPETUITY and if they don't actually fire rockets themselves they'll sub contract it to Jihad Hamas then cheerfully declare that despite the self imposed hardships they are PROUD of their compliant Gazans to be so 'resilient' and so happy and so inventive So Hamas are Comedians as well?
3. Gaza and Qatar need Israels' aid in bringing

in fuel for their power station, otherwise too many "work accidents" might occur from trying to build explosives in the dark. Pathetic policy of King Bibi the Weak and his government.

6. Bad Policy
Dennis ,   NJ USA   (03.17.14)
Terrible policy. It shows that these animals can shoot rockets at us all day long, and, as long as some of their Arab brethren are willing to pay for it, we will supply the fuel to make their miserable lives less miserable, and to help make the rockets. It shows that if you pay us, Jews will do anything...Lousy policy..These animals are sworn to our destruction, and we're supplying the fuel to helkp them do so.
7. Gutter also funds Al Qaida/Al Nusra in Syria and elsewhere.
