you see matty, israel did always help the gaza wounded by setting the same hospital at the border after the cast lead operation. didn't you read about it???? ignorant! guess what!!! hamas refused to bring the patients and injured there. a couple of thugs shot at the border and after the israeli doctors waited for one week and no one showed up, they left tha area. blame hamas! hameed aboughaze, iranian indeed, israel is in fact the light unto the nations.

for you information, ignorant and hateful one, israel allows all necessities into gaza; meds, fuel, necessities for living like food and everything under the sun. but they don;t allow material that can be used to build tunnels, and can be used to make homemade missiles. everything else, gets in and the un knows it because it supervises all the transport. hameed aboughaze, iranian

the gazans are still waiting for the almost 100 million that the arab muslim despotic regimes said they will donate. so far ZERO! nothing! how humanitarian of their brothers and sisters, won;t you say???? why should israel give this relief to an organization that is a terrirst gang who has lobbed 13,000 missiles for 8 years into israel, killing, destroying businesses, life, etc... would your country?????? hameed aboughaze, iranian

you are a liar sir. the only countries that are islamic that have sent aid, but not medicine or doctors at all. they only sent tents, blankets and food, dishes and cuttlery. AND NO MONEY AT ALL. this is a fact. run to sky news and bbc and look at who is giving what and how much. no money at all from arab states and muslim states. only basic necessities such as diapers and what i have mentioned above. the only countries that provided very limited necessities is iran, jordan, morroco and nothing more! hameed aboughaze, iranian

70. Palestinian help in Haiti
Robert ,   Brisbane, Australia   (01.19.10)
After recently suffering its own man made earthquake, Gazans have dug deep by sending aid in an effort to assist the suffering of the people of Haiti. As admirable as the Israeli contribution in Haiti is, this of course will not be reported or boasted about as is the self congratulatory article and posts of some people here.
71. Where's the UN?
Robert ,   Brisbane, Australia   (01.19.10)
To No 48: Your question :- "Where's the United Nations?" 200 of their people were killed during the earthquake. Does that answer your loaded question?
72. Israeli Field Hospital in Haiti
Jane ,   Overland Park, KS US   (01.19.10)
What an incredible story. I will be traveling to Haiti and I would love to visit your field hospital. I'm an RN and work post op. Congratulations to you!
73. More Zionist Controlled Media Tripe
Dav Lev ,   Burbank. CAUSA   (01.19.10)
I'm sure David Duke and Louis Farrakhan, Jimmy Carter and Zbrig are refuting this as Zionist propaganda.k I mean, Jews aiding black (who speak French) 11,000 miles away from home. What are the Holocaust denies (and Ahmad) telling their constitiuents? I'm sure Iran is saying it's the Zionist controlled media..like the "Zionist" type killing of it's nuke scientist. But lets not forget this is not a Muslim country, but a Catholic one and Israel's PR might continue. What is Chavez ( Venezuela) saying? I wonder.
74. :: Forgive me, I misspoke
Matty Groves ,   Fairport   (01.19.10)
Along with the effective Israeli medical and rescue teams on the ground in Haiti I have also sent Lots of Hot Air to the victims so that they will not be cold at night, since they have to sleep under the stars, and I will keep sending more Hot Air upon request and as needed Tune in for more exciting BSSnews in the next few days
75. Hate speech on YouTube - URGENT!!!
Ilan ,   Los Angeles   (01.19.10)
My Israeli brothers, all of you who are commenting on here right now, I need your help! There is a crazy man on YouTube who is BASHING Israel. He is saying that the IDF (zahal) is stealing organs in Haiti to bring it back to Israel and sell it. This is the only reason we are there! Please everybody, show this nazi what Israel is all about, comment and show the world we are not frayerim!! http://www.youtube.com/comment_servlet?all_comments&v=qwQM6-lLlrM

79. #57 Matty again...
Tahl ,   Ashdod, Israel   (01.19.10)
As I said Shifa is the only real hospital in Gaza (in Western standards). I guess the WHO has more liberal standards, fine by me. What really matters here though is that none of the "hospitals" were targeted by the IDF, and their apparent "damage", if any, was not significant, as there is no proof that any single person in these "hospitals", was hurt from such damage. Good for you that you find the quotes that suit your own agenda in wikipedia. Not surprisingly though, you chose to ignore many details from there which are quite uncomfortable for you... Here's one example of many: "several of the 115 prisoners accused of collaboration with Israel who had not yet been tried, were executed by Hamas militants in civilian clothes". Oops, too problematic a quote for Matty, so let's ignore it. "Yes they did but it wasn’t situated in Gaza. " - Is this the best you can come up with? What a lame argument. The hospital was situated in one of the crossings, accessible to anyone in Gaza who wanted to come there. Unless of course, Hamas prevented them because it'll create good PR for Israel. Obviously you cannot defend Hamas here, hence you concede this point. As I mentioned, Israel provided plenty of supplies to Gaza during the operation. If Goldstone and the Palestinians complain it's not enough, well then... Maybe if they accepted the existence of the country who sent them these supplies, they wouldn't be in this situation. Or better yet - maybe if they didn't have their own snipers killing off their own people who transported these supplies, and then looting them - then these supplies could have reached more people? Oops, I forget - you couldn't defend Hamas in this case either when I brought it up, hence you concede this point too. This should take care of your post. Anyway, no matter how much further rubbish and disinformation would come from you in response, I won't bother answering anymore. As Sarah said here earlier - you are hijacking this thread, and I won't play along with that anymore. I'll leave it to the other readers' common sense to expose the inanity of your arguments, as I've done here.

Fox and Sky News are both owned by Rupert Murdoch. They are the only channels that give Israel good press.

You are 100% right!
85. Re: Israel mission to Gaza
Proud of Israel ,   Kenosha, USA   (01.19.10)
To Matty Groves: Perhaps if the Haitians sent missles to kill Israeli kids on a daily basis Israel would not help them, either. Isn't it lonely being an apologist for terrorists? Or are you so anti-semitic that you can't see the difference between Haiti which, for all of its problems, does not kill other nation's children and the terrorists in Gaza, who do.
86. Monday ABC national news had glowing story on IDF
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (01.19.10)
hospitals. Show host asked why America who was so close to Haiti was so far behind in helping. PRAISE from ABC, now that is something to CELEBRATE!!! Good going!!!
87. Susan , Not only Ruppert Murdoch
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (01.19.10)
I have seen this information in a Belgian paper too . There i had read that the first born boy there was called Israel . Now there are already FIVE babies born there [ News Reshet Beth ] They gave the link to youtube too .
88. It's not because Haiti voted yes in 47
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (01.19.10)
But because there are people in great NEED there , that's the # 1 reason
89. praise for israeli
debbie ,   israel   (01.19.10)
MATTY GROVES One more thing - you mentioned that Israel won't let medical equipment and medicine into Gaza. LOL LOL - it seems that gazans and hamas have no trouble at all, smuggling in arms, bombs, and anything else that benefits them, and can be used to fight isael. I read that the smugglers are earning thousands of dollars per day with these tunnels, and therefore are totallly against the crossings being opened, as not to hurt their lucrative business. THE TUNNELS ARE GOLD MINES If they are so handy at smuggling in arms to use against Israel, why can't they also smuggle in medicines and food? HA - let's see if you can answer that MATTY GROVES OF FAIRPORT
90. praise for israeli mission
debbie ,   israel   (01.19.10)
GEE They are right here, Gee, ready and willing to bash any small mention of praise for the sophisticated tireless israeli teams in Haita. Please see MATTY GROVES' rabid anti semitic ramblings. He never misses a golden opportunity to bash Israel.
