Subject: RE: BS: Small hope for Israel/Palestine
So,chaps, if I park my pantechnicon across the mouth of the Channel Tunnel and let the tyres down and throw the keys in La Manche, I'd be "blockading Europe", huh? Jeez, what a bunch of comedians. Israel is blockading Gaza. Egypt has shut down a tunnel or two at one point on the border. Of course, you want Egypt to be blockading Gaza because that would add grist to your pro-Israeli regime mill. Good luck. But do take a good look at the regime in Egypt before you call them your partners in crime. They're not very nice, what with proposing mass executions and all that. Still, it must feel good to have them on your side, chaps. You suit each other very nicely.
