1. notice how no aid is given to Sudan
shmu ,   unholyland   (01.04.09)
Aid is another way of demonizing the evil Jews
2. EU happy to finance terrorism.
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (01.04.09)
Of course, they even finance terrorists living in their own countries. I wonder how EU taxpayers feel about their hard-earned taxes going down the Palestinian toilet? If they had any brains (& a backbone) they would donate humanitarian aid to the VICTIMS of terrorism.
3. #2 Terry from Eilat
Franco ,   Roma, Italia   (01.04.09)
Terry, I'm sorry we have no way of objecting to U.E. giving our money to anywhom it likes: E.U. taxes are collected by taking 1% of V.A.T. on each European citizen's personal expences, so the only way to block our cash from flowing into E.U.'s administration would be to cease making any buying. It's a shame we can't exercise any form of control over how our money is spent.
4. Aid should be sent to Israel
Indigenous ,   statless   (01.04.09)
Aid should be sent also to Israel; it is besieged and under embargo by most of its neighbors for 60 years now. These Gazans are only besieged for 18 months...who should receive the aid. More than 5 (five) FIVE , KHAMESH ...Israelis have been killed in seven days ..and by the way some 500 Arabs died...Stupid Europeans...you are blind ..you should send the aid to Israel ...HA HA HA HA HA ...(Satanic laugh)
5. #2
john ,   dublin   (01.04.09)
i feel very good about the fact that my hardearned taxes are going to help the people of gaza that the israelis have deliberately witheld any aid from. and the humanitarian aid IS going to the victims of terrorism.
6. Screw the EU.
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (01.04.09)
They help aid and harbor terrorist regimes, so that they can suck on their mixed drink of crude oil and bourbon. These jackasses will never get off the oil teet. They'll allow all the Jews to be killed for a barrel of oil. It's about time to tell the Arabs and the Persians, to shove their cult religion of terror, where the sun doesn't shine. I don't have to convert to your cult......I don't have to accept your cult............and I darn sure don't have to condone what you do in the name of your cult. You should all wear shirts with the excuse.....Allah made me do it! The biggest excuse ever foisted on Human kind by a bunch of radical religious nuts. It's about time someone told you that you are a bunch of loons too. Your behaviour is abominable to the human race.
7. Good EU
Heleni ,   London, UK   (01.04.09)
I'll second John here, it's good that we give aid to Gaza.
8. Re: # 3
Ariel Ben Yochanan ,   Kfar Tapuah   (01.04.09)
B"H That was one of the reasons I made aliyah (emigrated to Israel) from Italy: I did not want to support with my tax euros the foreign policy of Jew-haters. If there is no other way, one can vote with one's feet and just leave.
9. Britton's objection to Cast Lead
Norman Gellman ,   Rehovot, Israel   (01.04.09)
This a case of the kettle calling the pot black. Did the Brits forget how they behaved in Ireland? What would they do if rockets started to land on their soil?
10. visit gaza then comment again
h3x3   (01.04.09)
Steven, I'd advise you to come to Gaza for just a day, change your nice and warm TV seat for 24h in Gaza city. Then, please, comment again.
