I never said great. What I said was that it is not the humanitarian disaster that some people are making it out to be. There is poverty but no mass starvation. No mass deaths. Actually, according to the Palestinians themselves, the population is growing, not shrinking.
The link I sent showing off the mass of food and goods was from a Palestinian paper, not an Israeli one. Gaza gets more aid than any other people in the world and Israel lets in just about all of it. Do they let in the types of ferterlizer that can be used to make explosives? No. Do they let in other ferterlizer? Yes. There was a recent link in one of these new posts showing how much is sent into Gaza on a per week, month, and year basis. It's staggering. I'm not saying that all of these organizations lie but certain ones (BBC, Guardian, AFP, UN, etc.) have been known to be biased and even to not report things that do not fit their narrative. Have you heard of how much money Israel delivers to the PA per month from VAT? No? How about how brand new cars are smuggled into Gaza through tunnels? Or how Hamas confiscated and destroyed a number of homes to make way for a building project? All news that can be verified, all news under reported. Oh, and by the way, Israel is not the only one in on this blockade. Egypt is as well. Where are the protests about them keeping a blockade of Gaza? Why would Egypt want to blockade Gaza? Question that should be asked but are ignored because of the elephant in the room - Israel. > I don't for one moment believe that things are great in Gaza and it is > a bustling cosmopolitan with all the comforts of first world nations, > and that all these Aid organisations,the BBC,hell even Fox News are > blatantly lying and exaggerating the truth. > > And that is the message that I got from following this Flotilla.
