Aid to Gaza

Hamas ruled Gaza is at war with Israel, and has no apparent interest in ceasing its aggressive campaign to bring down the democratic Jewish State. Against this background, certain media and international organizations have criticized and cited Israel alone for fault. These organizations have vigorously campaigned to boycott Israeli products for closing its border with Gaza. Yet, in the past 2 weeks, Israel Defense Forces announced that over fourteen thousand tons of humanitarian aid were delivered in 637 truckloads to Gaza, from Israel.

This aid included: 51 trucks loaded with wheat 66 trucks loaded with fruits and vegetables 27 trucks loaded with fish, poultry and meat 40 trucks loaded with dairy products 22 trucks loaded with sugar 38 trucks loaded with shoes and clothing 4 trucks loaded with medical equipment and medicines 117 trucks loaded with animal food 37 trucks loaded with hygiene products Hundreds of thousands of liters of fuel During this same time, 781 Gazans and their escorts crossed the border into Israel for medical treatment. 190 staff from International organizations crossed into Gaza from Israel, and 200 crossed from Gaza to Israel. What other nation at war, ever, has so strongly aided an enemy so determined for its destruction?
