After weeks of negotiation and frustration and blockade, peace groups two days ago were able to bring 7 tons of relief supplies from Israel into crippled Gaza. Do you understand this? Israel is in crisis. Uri Avnery explains:
“Under
conditions of the strangling siege of Gaza, the simple act of transporting a
few tons of cargo some dozens of kilometres required two months of intensive
effort by dozens of people in Israel and the Gaza Strip, with considerable help
from peace seekers all over the world. This siege should be terminated
forthwith. It is a manifestly immoral, gross violation of International Law
which causes Israel nothing but damage."
