Noted and signed. We need to get the Isreali's illegal war against the Arab and Palestinian civilians off the inside pages and put it out front on a banner headline to shine a light on their abominable campaign. The Isreali government has systematically deprived these people of food, medicines and power because the vaunted Army can't run off a few missileers.

Collective punishment is abhorrent. It is morally reprehensible. It is functionally self-defeating. It destroys the moral fiber of those who order it, practice it, countenance it, turn a blind eye to it. The people of Gaza are forced to bear the burden of the whole of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. They are the unarmed proxy warriors of their side, victimized by the tactical cruelty of the other. They are the victims of collective punishment. And they live in Israel. If the world is unsympathetic and we assume that the world is ready to accept collective punishment. God help us all when that happens.

Noted and signed, thanks Sophia. The Middle East aggression is supported and funded not by extremists but by the the United States and Arab countries whose Oil interests in the region are profiteering by innocent blood of Palestinians as well as Israelis. In keeping the Mideast unstable so does the cost of oil in the region. Men women and children are paying with their lives.

yes I saw that comment on the artcile above the link I left an interesting quote again, partily from the article. Odd I think when it is reversed properly the many sins of the many, being the Israeils and those who have backed them and allowed this. Someone has posted an article from the New York Times that Israel has broken down and is letting them have abit of FUEL, I diidn't even read much more I am so disgusted with them and their actions, including my own country Canada. They have taken lands and made prision camps with walls, that cause torture and suffering. I hope this rings out LOUD to the countries of the world, to those that back Israel, the Eueropean Union, US, Canada, the Bill Gates and Big Corporations of the world that have their products made there, they need to be heavily SANCTION TO SAY THE LEAST AND INTERNATIONAL COURT. People sit back and just do nothing too often, obviously nothing was learned in WW2, it just continues, Lets hope that changes, but we will all have to work hard so it does with the present powers that be. Please keep signing, on and off as able, thx.
