Questions to ask by Rabbi ArthurLavinsky

There are many Palestinians who suffer in the Gaza Strip. That is a terrible
shame. But the blame does not rest with Israel. After all, it is not the
Israelis (who GAVE the Gaza to the Palestinians) who voted in a band of murderers
like Hamas to rule them. It is Hamas which states that its very reason
for being is to destroy the Jewish State. Why is there a need for a blockade
against Gaza. There are at least 4000 reasons, each represented by
rockets hat have been fired from Gaza towards population centers in Israel.
Sadly, t is true that the Palestinians in Gaza need pipes to carry water and
to emove sewage. But when pipes have been brought to Gaza, they've been
turned nto rockets and bombs. Indeed, they need cement to build schools,
hospitals, and homes, but when they had cement, they built bunkers next
to hospitals and schools and homes so that they can fire their rockets and
then retreat to safety.

Let us be clear. The so called peace activists are in fact provocateurs.
The so called human rights activists are, for the most part, enemies of
Israel, the United States and democracy
If they were so worried about human suffering, they would be petitioning
Hamas to release Gilad Shalit who was unlawfully kidnapped almost four
years ago
My friends, I have some questions that I want you to answer for me.
If the purpose of this flotilla was to bring much needed aid into the
Gaza Strip, was there any reason for them NOT to dock at the Israeli port of
Ashdod for a lawful inspection?
If the intentions of the passengers aboard this flotilla were truly
peaceful, would they have attacked the Israeli soldiers with chains and
knives and pipes?
If their intentions were pure, would they have shouted repeatedly "eath to
the Jews?
If the inhabitants of Gaza were in such dire need of humanitarian
supplies,would Hamas have turned away the tons of aid carried aboard this
flotilla fter having passed through Israeli security?
