FYo: I guess it doesn't matter that the people who already do sell medicine, The Red Cross, were kept out of Gaza for two days. What makes you think the Israelis are going to be any more accomodating to the UN?

We can't use the fact that Hamas respected the last cease-fire for 6mos until Israel got all Mommie Dearest.

Le yawn...curious how many people are actually Palestinian, and the rest just a bunch of loud wankers with no jobs. Sabacc-What's the point of issuing a statement that serves no purpose, is completely unenforceable and only hurts your allies? That's why the US blocked it. The UN is worthless as a peace making or peace keeping body. Go to their website and see how many peacekeeping missions are still going on for more the 20+ years. Like Dave Chapelle said, "Sell some medicine, bitches!'

I'd normally expect a vigorous Israeli counter-protest, but most of those people actually have jobs to work at.
