It was strange that before Israel's recent assault on Gaza Israeli leaders first consulted with Egyptian leader Mubarek. Then when the assault started Egypt immediately closed it's border with Gaza, preventing emergency aid coming in to Gaza or any of the people of Gaza escaping. That's just what Israel wanted, so did the Israelis threaten Mubarek or did he just take their side any way? Gaza actually belongs to Egypt and was occupied by Israel many years ago. Israel is obviously not abiding by international law requiring the occupying power to provide for the needs of the occupied people. Israel's recent onslaught against Gaza involved destroying farms, schools, universities, hospitals, fire stations, roads, factories, etc. across Gaza. The Israelis even reportedly destroyed the zoo in Gaza and killed many of the animals. And Mr. Mubarek, who has ruled Egypt by martial law now for 25 years, offered no help or support whatsoever for his people in Gaza against this illegal onslaught. Mubarek recently cancelled scheduled elections in Egypt because he would likely have lost big. I think it's time this Israeli/American puppet be removed from office by the Egyptian army and replaced with someone who will be looking out for the Egyptian people, including those in Gaza.
