Shahin Jaan,
I am not sure why are you trying really hard to blame the whole thing on activists and playing no devil advocate on Israeli part?
Which really raises the question why the humanitarians are not using this crossing with cooperation from Egypt ?
Isn't that obvious?
Egyptians were cooperating and basically carrying orders of their friends to ensure the blockade works, even against their own people's wishes.
So if you are an activist, would you go for the boss to let him cross the border or you engage in a complicated situation like land border?
If the big boss says yes, that means yes and if he says no. That means NO!
And Also if Egypt is not cooperating, then why there is not a International outrage directed at them ?
Because just two days ago 9 people are killed. That is, I think, more important than a friend not keeping his promise to another friend.
Also, I am not sure about the fine prints of the agreement. Maybe the agreement is not a permanent promise.
Now, another question:
Since the Naval blockage of Gaza by Israel, Has there been any Humanitarian Ships that were allowed to deliver their cargo to Gaza ? Does anyone have any information on this ?
There have been some. But you know how Israelis are. They have been really tough on this and they basically holding a whole nation hostage because one of their soldiers is hostage. That is also pathetic.
I am not saying Israel should not have defended herself, despite my opposition to their apartheid constitution. All I am saying is they are going to come with a lot of excuses. You, here, sound like someone trying to dig out anything to cover for the fact that 9 people died, no matter how aggressive they were. They were not convicted criminals or members of Taliban. Many of those on board were from Western countries. Maybe passionate like Greenies but in no way even comparable to terrorists.
Again, I am really dumbfounded, Shahin Jaan, by seeing you a peaceful person, a follower of a very liberal way of life, holding such a grudge against friends of your enemy to the extent that you are trying so hard to defend ANY Israeli action here! Sorry that I am blunt. But even if you are not doing it, it looks like you do.
