There is little doubt that recent incursions of Israel by Hamas caused widespread outrage. However, for more than my lifetime, the people of Gaza have been treated as prisoners by the Israelis. Cutting off all supplies to Gaza is in danger of backfiring on Israel. I understand their view of Hamas, but does making innocent women and children suffer advance peace? I think not.
I do not have the answers.
i find it sad that with all us hams harping on about our role in disaster relief at every opportunity, that we have nothing in place to help coordinate emcoms during the communication blackout. there are still stations in gaza trying to get through, and messages trying to find a path to aid agencies, family members, and media.
