What Palestine wanted
an end to all Israeli attacks on Gaza
- opening of the border crossings to Israel and Egypt
- release of the Hamas prisoners Israel, without reason, took in the West Bank over the last three weeks
- payment by the Palestinian Authority for the government workers in Gaza.
The war Netanyahoo launched on the people of Gaza has so far killed over 192, 80% of them civilians, wounded 1,400 people, completely destroyed 990 houses, damaged another 1,700 houses, and created billions of damage to the infrastructure in Gaza, including the already fragile water distribution system. For what?
In total Israel air force and missiles hit more than 2,000 “targets” while some 1,000 rockets were fired from Gaza. No Israeli was killed by the unguided rockets Hamas and other organizations launched from the strip.
This morning there was some talk of a cease-fire allegedly after an agreement was negotiatated by the Egyptian dictator Sisi. Israel’s security cabinet immediately accepted it.
But this cease-fire agreement was actually written by the war-criminal and Zionist Tony Blair. No Palestinian had even seen it or was involved in its creation. They learned of the “agreement” through the media. It included nothing but a stop of fighting and some vague promise of further talks. For what then did so many people die?
Hamas and other groups rejected this scam and continued their ineffective rocket fire. Hamas, which has also to keep consensus with more radical Palestinian groups in Gaza, had set several conditions for stopping the fighting:
- an end to all Israeli attacks on Gaza
- opening of the border crossings to Israel and Egypt
- release of the Hamas prisoners Israel, without reason, took in the West Bank over the last three weeks
- payment by the Palestinian Authority for the government workers in Gaza.
Rocket launches from Gaza have continued over the day and Israel is now back to bombing whatever is left to bomb in Gaza. It’s politicians have set the elusive aim of “dismantling Hamas”. But Hamas has support of the people and unless all people are killed it will exist and a longer conflict will only make it stronger.
