Gaza is under blockade of land and sea by Israel, although there are no settlements. Israel has made it the world's largest prison, gunning down volunteers bring food(Mavi Marmara, Rachel Cory).

The settlements are in the West Bank, and they are still growing. Israel even used settlements in the West Bank, and stealing 100 M USD from the West Bank to punish them for seeking non-member observer status.

Canada, USA, Palao are supporting Israel's Apartheid, even PSI union from South Africa agrees.

why don't think like this :

jews got oppress by hitler .. ( hamas doesn't exist) .. so in order to save them ..UK decided to gave them Palstine ..( hamas still doesn't exist! ) ..Palastinean decided that they are not about to gave away their land ! ...so they start fighting for their land ( I think they have the right to ) ..to make it short ...after years of struggling hamas came...HOW COULD YOU JUMP ALL OF THAT AND SAY HAMAS IS THE BIG PROBLEM !!!

[pixiegoldkisses]

Oh just calm down and keep dreaming...Don't worry about me worry about yourself Karma is a B*itch and its coming for you

[עדי אוזדין]

oh, I wish one rocket from Gaza will hit your house. every 10 minutes.

[עדי אוזדין]

FOR HAMAS: It's the most simple way to make peace - stop terror. I think you should interview the children of sderot. They can't be kids. Rockets all over. every 10 minutes. 15 seconds to save yourself.

[yonatan2703]

i'm from israel and i agree with some of the thinks he says but from my point of view i see us, israel, under attack by the terror organizations, my friend died because of a rocket fired by the hamas, this conflict as 2 sides and both of the sides are wrong.

[Ororo Munroe]

yeah you're right hamas was killing the people and israel just came to help. yeah right. i mean who are you kidding?

[ggggggggggggo1]

Gaze is under blockade because of terror, not the other way around. Marmara are not "volunteers who bring food", but terrorists who violated international law. Israel brings more food to Gaza each day than the entire volunteers. Rachel Cory wasn't "gunned down" and it's completely irrelevant, she was an anarchist who didn't listen to orders given by the military troops and did the equivalent of walking into a mine field. we are all very sorry for her death, but she did a stupid act.

[Yosef Yonin]

gee, i wonder why gaza is under a blockade.... hmm, it probebly has NOTHING to do with the fact that Hamas is an exremist terrorist organization that glorfies the murder of innocent people?

israel had ABSOLUTLY no reson to block gaza right? the fact the missles and terrorists were raining from gaza before the blockade were just a mere coinsidence perhaps?

and the two ships you mentioned, did IDF open fire on them just for fun or because the activists started beating the shit out of the soldiers

[olivia destandau]

Good Vid except that Obama DOESN'T CARE about justice.

[ggggggggggggo1]

Dear Ahmed,

THERE ARE NO SETTLEMENTS IN GAZA FOR MORE THAN 7 YEARS.

Israel withdrew from Gaza on it's own on July 2005. ever since rockets are still being fired from the Gaza strip into Israel, not to mention kidnapping an Israeli soldier who was inside Israeli territory. THIS IS INJUSTICE.... wait, NO. THIS IS TERROR.

Sincerely yours

-The Truth.
