PA: Hamas stealing Gaza hospitals' fuel

By Jay Colbe



The Palestinian Authority Health Ministry on Thursday accused Hamas of robbing fuel stockpiles in two hospitals in the Gaza Strip.



A statement published by the ministry claimed that Hamas had been stealing fuel from the European Hospital in the Strip for use in the group's operations.



"The fuel was supplied to hospitals in order to satisfy their needs, in wake of the blockade imposed on Gaza following Hamas's takeover," continued the statement.



For three days, Hamas has been preventing Gaza fuel companies from receiving fuel allocations sent from Ramallah. According to a Palestine Press news agency report, Hamas was stealing fuel and medical supplies sent from the PA Health Ministry in Ramallah to Gaza hospitals.



Reportedly, Hamas had been using the fuel for cars belonging to senior group officials and the medical equipment was being transferred to hospitals under Hamas control.



Last week, the High Court of Justice approved the government decision to cut fuel supplies to the Strip in response to Kassam rocket attacks and gave the state 12 days to provide more details regarding planned electricity cuts.



Gaza gas stations protested the High Court decision and announced that they were refusing to accept from Israel even the amount of fuel allowed because the drastic reduction.

The worst enemy of the "Palestinians" are the "Palestinan" leaders.

The PA says. PA meaning fatah subversives who over threw the elected governing body of Palestinians. Sure, lets believe them.

And what of medical supplies going to hospitals in Fatah occupied areas. Lets see. FUel and other neccesaties are prevented from going to Hamas governed areas in gaza, so Hamas allegedly prevents neccesaties going to fatah ruled areas in gaza. Tit for tat at most. IF there is any truth to the charges to begin with.

The PA says. PA meaning Hamas and Fatah subversives who overthrow each other every now and then. Sure, let's believe Hamas - just pick the side you believe by a roll of the dice.

And what of medical supplies going to hospitals in Fatah occupied areas. Let's see. Fuel and other neccesaties are prevented from going to Hamas governed areas in Gaza, so Hamas allegedly prevents neccesaties going to Fatah ruled areas in Gaza.

Tit for tat is deploarable no matter who does it, and the supposed enlightened progressive who downplays it is morally reprehensible.

"PA meaning fatah subversives who over threw the elected governing body of Palestinians."

Well, don't forget the people also elected Fatah democractically.

And Fatah tried to build a coalition government with Hamas, but Hamas refused.

"The worst enemy of the "Palestinians" are the "Palestinan" leaders."

Fine.

Then the leadership of the Israeli state is off the hook for everything.

Great work. I wouldn't have believed it possible.

What a concept. Blame the victims.

Like I said, great work.

"The worst enemy of the "Palestinians" are the "Palestinian" leaders."

Let’s unfold this little blurb.

The quotations indicated in the above entry seem to trivialize the legitimacy of a people who were in most part, farmers, fishermen and ranchers; working the land in an area of the world where the bounty of nature is in the sun baked seas and arid mountain valleys. For thousands of years. Race was a minor issue as the Christians Jews and Muslims lived and worked as people always have to survive in a meager harsh land. The people there, who had little if any say in the world of international politics that swirled over their lives.

Does that make them a pestilence to be cleansed from the land?

"Palestinian" leaders

This is a prison complex inside the massive military control of an occupational army. Get serious, and stop making these irrational comments. Israel controls the area and is solely responsible for the health and safety of its occupied populations. Period.

Let’s unfold this little blurb.

There is no truth to this historically untenable revisionist nonsense. The Palestinian people is an thno-demographic entity comprised of various Arab groups that came into being during the 1980's.

Get serious and quit making such spurious comments.

"Arab groups that came into being during the 1980's. "

Delusions of legitimacy provided ideology excusing the invasion of zionazi killers as they began the massacres of the 1947s and can't be neutralized by word games and lies.

It's the zionist who have no valid claim on the lands in Palestine; they only have the power of military terror to hold it with.

Does that make them a pestilence to be cleansed from the land?

Who claimed they were.?

Re: The Zionist claim to this land:

Jews have lived in the region continuously for 3,500 years. Much longer than any Arabic or Islamic people.

Israel was set up by a UN resolution---not conquest.

Israel did not displace the Arabs living there. Many fled on the advice of their Arab leaders while Israel begged them to stay. Those who stayed became Israeli citizens.

When the ARAB ARMIES attacked Israel when it was one day old, the Israeli defended themselves.



Religious significance was one of four factors which determined Israeli legitimacy in Israel. The other three were : 1. continuous Jewish presence in the area

2. Jewish working of the land---a.k.a. "sweat equity"

3. UN resolution 181

NOTE: the Palestinians have none of these factors. They did not buy land from the Ottoman empire as the Jews did. They did not create a country and infrastructure when they did live there. They have no religious authority to be in Israel. Jerusalem is not mentioned ONCE in the Koran!!

And most can't trace their ancestry to the region any further back than 1920. Most Palestinians immigrated to the area to get the new jobs the Kibbutzem offered.

"It's the zionist who have no valid claim on the lands in Palestine; they only have the power of military terror to hold it with. "

Delusions of legitimacy provided ideology excusing the invasion of blood thirsty Palinazi murderers as they began the massacres of the 1920's, 1930's and 1940's, let alone the violent attacks beginning 1886, and can't be neutralized by word games and lies.

The Zionist state was set up by the Judao-Christian dominated 1947 UN. Meaning that 33 Judao-christian diplomats from 33 Judao-christian states drew a line across a map of the Palestinian's homeland and gave the Zionists their blessings to steal 1/2 of palestine and murder anyone who dared to resist the theft of palestinian lands by the Zionist invadors. Yep, western interloapers have a long history of giving 3rd world lands to themselves and their friends. In 1885, at the conferance of berlin, western powers "partitioned" all of Africa. Western interloapers drawing lines across a map of Africa didn't mean that Belium's King leapold II and his minions were something other than murderous thieves of the Congo. And western interloapers drawing a line across a map of Palestine and giving Zionist crusaders their blessings for the Zionists to become murderous thieves of 1/2 of palestine doesn't mean Zionists are something other than murderous thieves. it just means the Zionists have the blessings of western interloapers to be murderous thieves of palestinian lands. Nothing more.

Remnants of the Hebrew invasion remained in the land like remnants of the holy roman empire (germans) remained in the Sudaten Mountains after the HRE's (German) occupation of Bohemia and Moravia. Nazis used the FACT that germans lived in Czechoslovakia since the German's last occupation gave then a right to invade Czech lands, like ZIonists use the FACT that a tiny Jewish minority living in palestine gave them a right to invade Palestine under Brittish guns.

Palestinians didn't buy any land from the Ottoman occupiers of palestinian lands??? And did the Greek people buy Greek lands from the Ottoman occupiers of Greece??? WOW! It is hard to imagine anyone (even Zionist enablers) comming up with such dung rationalizations to marginalize the Palestinian's basic human right NOT to be destroyed by the Zionist crusaders.

Arabs attacked "Israel". Right. Zionists became murderous thieves of half of the Palestinian's homeland, and the Arabic speeking neighbors of the palestinians tried and failed to liberate palestine like England and France tried and failed to liberate Poland. Noone says that England and France started world war 2 when they declaired war against germany after nazis invaded Poland.

And like the Nazis occupied the French who failed to liberate Poland, ZIonists occupied SYrian and Egyptian and lebanese lands after those countries failed to liberate palestine from Zionist occupation.

Zionist propaganda sure is a vile load of SSit.

"Meaning that 33 Judao-christian diplomats from 33 Judao-christian states drew a line across a map of the Palestinian's homeland and gave the Zionists their blessings to steal 1/2 of palestine."



And now the UN is dominated by 56 Islamic states, and they want to dispossess 6 million Jews. And since there are so many of them, they must be right. Is that what you are implying?

I think it should give us all pause to examine Islamic imperialism and empire-building

Its the largest voting bloc in the UN.

look at the record.

Additionally, many smaller countries are held hostage by the oil giants- and feel its in their best interest to vote with them.

They are literally over a barrel.

Yet another reason to reduce our dependency on oil.

If one was serious about the record, one should look at the condemnation of human rights resolutions brought against Palestine vs. Israel

Or maybe not.

The UN has always been a selective tool of the centers of banking capital.

With the selected leaders of these mini kingdoms held in power through western 'intelligence'.

Don't be simple

The UN has always been a selective tool of the centers of banking capital.



Yep. And the oil giants
