MK Zoabi: Blockade easing proves politics as motivator, not defense
None
Knesset Member Hanin Zoabi (Balad), who participated in the Gaza-bound flotilla to break the blockade on the Gaza Strip, said that the cabinet's decision to ease the blockade "proves that it is not a security blockade, but a political one."
"The objective of the flotilla and of the future struggle that continues and will continue is to completely break the blockade because this blockade amounts to collective punishment. Its result is crimes against the Palestinian people," said MK Zoabi to Ynet. (Roee Nahmias)
