Subject: RE: BS: Vilnai: inflict a 'shoah' on Gaza
The blockage is directed at the civilian population
It includes material essential for rebuilding homes deliberately destroyed by the Israelis and farming material necessary for growing produce, both for feeding families and for selling to supplement the family incomes. In addition, the Berlin Wall cuts through Palestinian land, separating the farmers from their crops, in other words, attempting to starve them into submission.
To deliberately target people who have nothing whatever to do with the fighting by such actions is to use them as human shields and is tantamount to a war crime - making the Israeli regime war criminals.
Both Amnesty and the U.N. have identified these actions as the cause of malnutrition in ten percent of Palestinian children.
You and Bobad have both confirmed that the Israelis are using Palestinian civilians as human shields - "there is no confusion - if you want a normal life - stop firing."
By supporting these actions you are supporting war crimes - deny that?
