Reply #24: I've never called to stop aid to Gaza. [View All]

The fact is that as bad as things are in Gaza, it's not a humanitarian crisis. So says Gershon Baskin, Nicholas Kristof, and Robert Serry - who all agree with Israeli officials.

In addition, another reason it's called a 'humanitarian show' is because nearly all organizations and individuals most critical of Israel - who repeat the false claim of a humanitarian crisis there - prove themselves to be phonies by the way in which they won't or can't criticize Hamas for their role in making Palestinians suffer in Gaza (by withholding and stealing aid, bombing the crossings, not allowing Gazans into Israel for medical treatment, using Palestinians as human shields, denying Gazans basic human rights, etc..). They never criticize Jordan, Lebanon, or others for Palestinian suffering either.

Personally, I don't see how it's possible for any real supporter of Palestinians to not be disgusted by phony humanitarians (including the warmongers who were on the flotilla). And let's face it, it's quite easy to tell the difference between a genuine humanitarian or peace activist from a phony one.

Here's a great article (from above) that demonstrates how phony many so-called peace activists and humanitarians are...
