Again, cut Gaza's energy supply already!
The problem is, the AP seems to be adding fuel to the fires of incitement here:
JERUSALEM (AP) - Israeli military experts have formulated a plan to gradually cut off electricity and fuel to the Gaza Strip in response to ongoing rocket fire from the Palestinian area, defense officials said Wednesday.And we're supposed to let that stand in our way of defense against barbarians? What the AP is doing here is actually encouraging condemnation. The government would best move along and turn off the switch already without allowing "internatonal condemnation" to get in the way of dealing with the Hamas, who are the ones really responsible for causing anyone on their side to suffer from loss of electricity.
Israel provides more than half of Gaza's electricity, and any power cutoff is sure to make life more difficult for residents of the already impoverished territory. The move is also certain to draw harsh international condemnation.
