Dear our brothers and sisters all over the world,

Greetings to you all from the occupied Palestine

It is really hard to write to you all today about humanitarian disaster in
Gaza Strip in the last few days, which is making the life of more than one
million and half Palestinian complicated. Israeli occupation is imposing a
siege over all the gates and entrances to Gaza and they forbid any
humanitarian assistance to enter to Gaza, they even forbid any United
Nations assistance to enter to Gaza strip. There is a lack of fuel and
electricity blackout.
"The humanitarian situation in the strip is witnessing a serious drop at all
levels starting from the lack of fuel, suspension of work at power stations
as well as the repercussions of the medical, economic situations .. Gaza
appeals to all international and Arab media to shed light on the disaster"
The Palestinian government said

The European Union earlier warned that Israel's decision to tighten its
closure on Gaza 'will exacerbate an already dire humanitarian situation in
the Gaza Strip.

This is a call for all our friends all over the world and all non-violence
groups around the world, peace and interfaith groups to stand against this
Israeli siege over Innocent Palestinians which cause up to now the death of
more than 75 children and women is hospitals because of the lack of
humanitarian and medical assistance.

Your voice and stands against this closure and crises in Gaza is
appreciated. This is a call for you all to stand with the Innocent
Palestinians in Gaza.

Our friends, please keep the people in Gaza on your prayers and lets all
pray for peace all over the globe.

With Regards
--

Hamas is not free from responsibility either.
If Israel is largely responsible for the suffering of Gaza residents, Hamas is not free from responsibility either. There are two reasons for this. The first is the escalation of its differences with the PA and Fatah to the level of fighting and seizing [Fatah's] HQ in Gaza last year. The second reason is permitting the launch of rockets.

THank you
Thank you King Tut for your reply
its true that Hamas made a big mistake in Gaza for its disagreement with Fateh but this is never an excuse to the closure in Gaza and dont forget that the Palestinian people are still under occupation.

The rockets issue i dont think its related to this issue at all, we need to blame the cause not the result
