Nas… there has been many signs of “the beginning of the ends” in the past, but it looks like dictators know how to reign forever in an Arab country

What pisses me off the most about the way the Egyptian government and some people are addressing this topic, is how they seem to think that simply allowing aid is enough, as if that is the only thing that people in Gaza have a right to, let alone need. So they don’t see a problem in Egypt’s participation in blocking the movement of people and goods in and out of Gaza, which is a right that nobody should be given the permission to take away.

Basically, if you’ve been watching some of the Egyptian TV shows like Amr Adeeb’s, and you’ve been listening to the “solutions” that some people are suggesting, the debate is turning not towards how Gazans should be freed from the prison they live in, but about how this prison should be built and operated by Israel and Egypt, with the assistance and full blessing and support of the international community.

They are arguing about how to sustain the blockade and occupation. The discussion about how to give Gazans the freedoms they deserve is completely absent.

Gazans live in poverty, but they are not starving , they still live in dignity.

Let me guess, you don’t live in Gaza.

Do you consider using animal feed to make bread, because wheat is no longer available, a dignified way of living? Try it once, go to the local bakery and ask them to make you a special batch of bread using animal feed, see how they will look at you.

What the Islamic brotherhood wanted to do is taunt the regime by insisting on going from Areesh where it was clearly mentioned to the convey months before they took off, what route they should take.

I don’t like Husni’s regime, but the Isalmic Brotherhood plays the dirtiest games, using religion and human aids!Should we remind that the brotherhood in Egypt is having great internal disputes and resignations over financial issues?

Come on! What with all the media circus created by the brotherhood’s propaganda machine (Al Jazeera)? Why would Egypt not allow this convoy? Or is it just these people wanted to smear Egypt’s nose in the ground using the humanitarian aid?

If they followed the usual and previous route, non of this could have had happened and it would have arrived in much much shorter time. It was a stunt.

Gazans live in poverty, but they are not starving , they still live in dignity. People look after each other too. Fireworks are shot every Thursday night at weddings!

Closing off the smuggling tunnels meaning no taxes for Hamas government from the tunnel’s lords and no weapons/money and Iran gears to Hamas. Again, food/medicine/petrol is normally supplied to thee strip!

Know the facts please, ask the nearest Gazan!

“Israel gives Hamas petrol/Electricity/Medicine to support this Islamic state which has made Gaza the most peaceful front in Israel’s history for decades.” – Are you serious? What was happening in Gaza last year at this date?

As an American, I would be willing to bet there is an American part to play in this. Consider U.S. policy vis-a-vis Israel and Gaza and Egypt. Given how much money the U.S. gives Egypt each year, I bet that is as much of a reason for Egypt to deny Viva Palestina entry to Gaza as Egypt’s wariness towards Hamas, Iran and the Islamic Brotherhood.

Of course I disagree with Mubarak’s holding up the convoy, but Americans who heap criticism on him are living in glass houses with this issue.

Gazans are not deprived food, don’t be fooled that the smuggling supplies the strip with daily food.

Iran and its puppet have been driving a sabotage campaign against Egypt. If George and his Islamists freind compiled with the Egyptian’s instructuins and procedures as before non of this would happened, they just wanted to make all of this trouble, I hope you’ve seen how they broke the border gates and riot the port, then shot a policeman.

I leave everyone with this video of Hamas shooting/bombing and killing Gazans inside a mosque!

The fence is not to starve Gazans, is anyone stupid enough to think Egypt will do such a thing ? Just think deeper of what Hamas zealots are doing on Iran’s account
