so, in simple terms, israel is solving a problem created by hamas and egypt? what ever happened to the terrible "siege" of gaza?

If the Palestinians were SMART they would use this as an opening to better relations, more cooperation and a better life for their people......but then again we are talking about Palestinians.

This is absolute insanity!!!

israel should stall a few more days saying that hamas is to be blamed cause money was not paid. just wondering who paid for all this fuel in the past. Also whenever the pipeline from egypt is blown up, israel should withhold gas to gaza until the pipeline is repaired

them fuel. We have a government and military that should be ashamed of themselves. All Israelis should boycott dor alon. Let them be the pali fuel company. We should demand the government publishes a list of all companies that trade with gaza and we can boycott them till they go broke.

Hamas go and buy fuel from AMANdinejad

But, weren´t they bombing us a week ago?

Let Ashton and the EU take care of their beloved Gaza.

Let the Arab world -- some of which literally floats on petroleum -- supply Gaza. Of course, there is no love lost between the petroleum-producing Moslem and Arab nations, so they probably won't. But why would that be Israel's problem? Give the Gazans a chance to take back their sordid strip. Perhaps when they grow tired of sitting in the dark, throwing out spoiled food and living without electricity, they will rise up against their oppressive rulers. Think of what could have been done with developing solar energy in Gaza, had not Hamas and the rest of the terrorist scum used the billions of dollars and billions of euros to fund research and development instead of acquiring weapons to use against Israel. Why should we worry about the creature comforts of people bent on our destruction? Want heat? Light a fire. Want relief from the heat? Sit in a barrel of water. The mentality of Gazans is Stone Age. Let their lifestyle match their mentality. Until they get sick enough of Hamas to actually do something about it. Assuming, of course, that they want to do something about it. Personally -- I'm not so sure.

Are the Israelis crazy or stupid?

This is an exceptional gesture of benifcent largess on the party of Israelis. Given the rockets in the Negev and the pipeline explosions, Israel is sharing its economic blood. We can be assured that the anti Semetic and pro Iranian press like Loudes Garcia-Navarro of NPR will never even whisper this one.

Undercut the Egyptians? Not demand any return? This is insane.

Make them buy it from Egypt.

good job, well done - this is what you need to do, cooperate and reach out to others. improve your very bad image in the outside world at least a little.

go figure.

What kind of stupidity are we doing? The Arabs say, the enemy of your enemy is your friend. The Christians say, turn the other cheek (love your enemy). Jewish tradition says, kill your enemy before he kills you. and the dumb stupid Israeli government says, Love your enemy so he can kill your friends??!!

Gaza belonged to Egypt and should go back to Its owner. The refusal of accepting this fact is the reason for the suffering of these idiots. Egyptians don't want the trouble makers of Gaza. Israel giving them fuel is like putting band-aid on an internal bleeding area. Please put your energy towards a real solution instead of worrying about our image. Fix what is really broken. Punching fancy words will not make you a righteous individual. Finding the real solution will. Peace

S TOO! They need the diesel "to electrify their hospitals". Iran needs nuclear technology for their hospitals. Anyone seeing a pattern here?

Plain stupid.

flowers and candy for Ahmadinejad - for Sabbath

my Government .After all that we have been through with this terrorist organization we have too supply them with fuel.The Israeli Government must be out of there minds,let the Arab countries take care of the Palestinians problems,they have the money and the oil.The terrorist blow up the gas lines from Egypt too Israel every week ,then we must supply them with gas as well ? I cannot for the life of me understand the logic behind my Governments thinking it is unreal.We are at war with these terrorists,any other normal country would not give them a glass of water.All is fair in love and war.Its the United Nations problem .not Israels were just the suckers.

Sarah you are so right but unfortunately these Gazan Muslims have not got a brain to think like this. They have been brainwashsed since birth and no ways are they going to change now. To live a normal life with Israel their changes will have to start from birth. I've seen this happen in my country and, believe me, it is working. Cheers.

And even with that, they can afford to fire rockets and missiles into Israel. How about they pay ALL their freight? Or, move back to Jordan?

Make them pay double for the endless terror.

and is suicidal

Would they sell Israel fuel if they had some and Israel needed it? NOT

Of course Israel will supply Diesel so the Gaza power plant can operate 24 hour a day.. My goodness do you expect bomb maker to build by candle light?
