How Obama needs to deal with Gaza
Obama wants a foreign policy challenge. Than I introduce Gaza. The London Independent reports this
"The UN suspended food distribution to 750,000 people in Gaza yesterday and much of its main city was without power last night after Israel halted supplies to the Strip amid continued fears that the five-month-old ceasefire could break down.
Earlier, the Israeli authorities turned away 20 senior European diplomats from the Erez crossing as they attempted to visit Gaza. The diplomats – including Richard Makepeace, the British Consul-General – were given no reason by staff at the crossing, a Consulate spokeswoman said.
The move followed more than a week in which foreign journalists have also been barred from entering Gaza. The Foreign Press Association has protested against the ban, which observers say has lasted for longer than any other of its kind since the intifada began eight years ago.
Obama needs to stare down Isreal and challenge them. He needs tell Isreal that what they are doing in Gaza is considered to be unreasonable. If Obama is uber smart, than what needs to do is stick Isreali law aganist Isreal in their own faces on Gaza. That means Isreal wrote a law on Gaza but they are not in compliance with their own rules. Then Isreal is burned. Several documented noncompliances with their own rules on Gaza will humiliate them.
That means Haaretz and Jpost will go nuts with on this story and the Isreal with then force to publish new rules on Gaza that meet internation al standards
And than Isreal will change its uber-strict rules on Gaza. Woz
