Oh The Horror!

By Findalis of Monkey in the Middle






For decades the world has been told that there is an humanitarian crises in Gaza.  That the people living in Gaza are being systematically starved to death by the evil Israelis.  That unless the world sends help thousands of people will starve.  Yet these people are the greatest of humanitarians.  For while they are starving to death they are sending their food to Somalia.  Yes they are sending humanitarian aid to Somalia.
In another sign that the humanitarian crisis in Gaza isn't all it is said to be, Gazans are sending aid to Somalia.

Imams in mosques in the Gaza strip mentioned Somalia during Friday prayers last week and asked Gazans to donate to their brothers there. Moreover, the Arab Doctors Union Gaza branch ran a campaign asking the people of Gaza to donate to people of Somalia.

The campaign, called "From Gaza hand in hand to save the children of Somalia", will last throughout Ramadan.

The Union took out advertisements supporting the campaign in local radios and websites to encourage people to contribute to the campaign. It is planning advertisements on local television also.

Various people responded to the campaign, but most donations came from the local non-governmental organizations and some wealthy businessmen, according to the organizers of the campaign.

One of the donors, Mohammed Abd Al Latif said, "I saw the pictures of our brothers in Somalia and felt so sorry for them; I wanted to do anything to help."

"The campaign aimed at demonstrating the extent of physical cohesion between the besieged Gaza and Somalia, showing that the Palestinian people are capable of supporting and standing by the Somali people," said Ahmad Hathat, the public relations officer of the Union.

The charity campaign underscores the fact that Gaza is swimming in surplus aid from an international community willing to underwrite the national aspirations of Fatah and Hamas to the extent that their enclaves have become transit points, rather than a destination, for aid.

Such generosity (while receiving US and UN aid for their hunger problem.) should be rewarded don't you think?  Especially after crying about their own problems of hunger and deprivation.



The people of Gaza who are crying wolf so often that none should ever believe them again!
