Amnesty International Report 2009
May 29, 2009
The sudden conflict followed an 18-month period in which the Israeli army had subjected the inhabitants of Gaza to an unremitting blockade, preventing virtually all movement of people and goods in and out of the territory and stoking a growing humanitarian catastrophe. The blockade throttled almost all economic life and led growing numbers of Palestinians to become dependent on international food aid; even terminally ill patients were prevented from leaving to obtain medical care that could not be provided by Gaza’s resource- and medicine-starved hospitals.
Tsk. Tsk. This unfortunate tripe by Amnesty International will help give rise to Anti-Semitism around the world. What a bunch of hypocrites. Shame on them. (/sarcasm)
