True Liars

First rule of reading and watching the news coming formal news channels, or state run propaganda, the Middle East is not new to the game. Whenever, the main stream American media quotes Israeli officials saying things like, "there are no humanitarian crisis in Gaza" I step back and say "Really?" if Gaza is not experiencing humanitarian crisis, I do not know who is. Let's go through a list, to see if we have crisis or not. no power for 70% of the residence of the Strip (the 30% who have power get it from Egypt, Israel will have to bomb Egypt to reach the 100%). Because, there is no power in Gaza, water does not get pumped to most home tanks. UNRWA reports of increasing food and fuel shortage. Human Rights Watch reports, lack of basic medical supplies and power to run medical devices that keeps people alive. Phone lines do not work, for the past three days, neither have I or any of my friends been able to get a line to Gaza. People are not free to move from point A to point B, it is an open air prison. Add to that constant Israeli shelling and air strikes that kills people in hospitals, places of learning and mosques...I am sure there are more to add to the list such as sanitation and sewage treatments do not function...Granted Palestinian militant groups use propaganda against Israel, but these guys are irrelevant since they never get any airtime and no one quote a single positive thing (if any) they say.

Truly, there are lies, damn lies and Israeli official statements. It's a shame because if this guy worked for the Sudanese government, we will never know there are Humanitarian crisis in Darfur...
