I think we shouldnt mistrust them , at least for now .
 

they've finally understood that the Hamas wanted Israel to stop the blocus and allow food and medicines in Gaza!

so, it's not "DESPITE" ongoing rocket attacks, it's "IN ORDER TO STOP" rocket attacks

It's only a matter of time before Hamas steals these supplies just like they stole every other delivery.

Yourish.com » Hamas steals food from aid organizations
 

your article says A spokesman for the Hamas police in Gaza said that the number of trucks was in fact 14 and they would be "delivered to Palestinians in need in the Gaza Strip."

He added that Hamas was the responsible body in the territory and it would decide how to distribute the aid

So they still distribute it, they don't block it
 

Bhkad! Nice post!

 

They distribute it their people and give the rest to the people.

This is not the same as distributing aid to those who need it.

out of five links, one doesn't work, one is off topic and the others are from israeli newspapers (which is not very neutral when you talk about hamas)

what does that mean?

oh yeah, of course they said they'd distribute it first to their Hamas-run hospital. But everything in Gaza is Hamas-run, so I don't see the big deal.

It's quite different from preventing the medicines to be distributed, like Israel does.
 
Hamas quite often impounds food, medicines, and fuel meant for the populace. This booty is first distributed to Hamas officials (for personal use or to resell for a nice profit) and then what is leftover trickles down the supply chain. Hamas has also attacked transfer terminals and destroyed cargo trucks as they wait in the que for loading/unloading.

It's strange how some of you "humanitarians" rail against Israel for limiting supplies (a non-violent tactic) and yet never complain at all about the barrier wall between Gaza and Egypt. Yes I know, it's a bit inconvenient and embarassing.

It's probably all moot anyway. Israel FM Tzipi Livni has just returned from talks with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in Cairo. As I understand it, Egypt and Israel have agreed to dismantle Hamas if the rocket attacks continue.
 

OK OK you've convinced me. As far as medicines are concerned, Hamas is not better than Israel.

They're talking about attacking since several days. They say it will be mainly aerial attacks because the IDF doesn't want to fight by foot, there would be too many casualties. On the other hand the attack will be short, as you've got elections in february.

Do you think it could influence the outcome of the votes? Who would gain votes if things turned bad in Gaza?

Food, medicine, and fuel. The trifecta.

Perhaps not. Over the past two months, two IDF armored divisions have war gamed an incursion into Gaza.

The ceasefire has expired. Hamas is firing dozens of rockets every day. Things are already bad bub. Even Egypt has come to the conclusion that enough is enough.

That surprises me, I read they feared too many casualties

I don't disagree with you, I'm just wondering which Israeli political party would gain votes if there was a war? The right-wing ones?
 

Can you cite references please..

Mubarak of Egypt is also starving Gaza, worse than Israel over this actually. He only cares about keeping the foreign aid to his government, would not do anything that will upset those that provide this aid

Certainly. Here's one...

Inexplicable. What higher purpose is served in attacking the depot that supplies Gaza with its fuel supplies?

Just Google Hamas + corruption. Shouldn't be all that difficult.
