The Other Side of the Equation..

Guess what? A new flotilla is on its way to Gaza, this time from Sweden. We come in peace, they say. The ship is now sailing with “activists” dressed up as conscious driven freedom fighters, that for some reason don’t see any reason to sail to the thousands being murdered in Syria these days, just a few miles away. So lets stop the costume party for a moment, examine the true facts, and strip these “activists” down to who they really are.
The Gaza border is open. Morsi, the new Egyptian president, has decided to embrace Hamas, the terrorist organization that rules Gaza, and the border between Egypt and Gaza has been open for months. Also, In the past year more than 1.2 million tons of goods have been transferred to Gaza through the secured border with Israel. all that remains closed is Gaza’s access to the sea, so as to prevent massive shipments of rockets to Hamas. Rockets which have continuously been fired on civilian Israeli cities in the past week, by the way.
Oh, have you not heard of these rockets? Sadly, I’m not very surprised. These things don’t get much coverage anymore, because it’s become a bit boring and happens almost every day. The rockets were the official Hamas response to the Israeli unilateral disengagement from Gaza six years ago. In other words: that’s what started happening when Gaza was actually freed.
Now What?
