Israel should choose diplomacy over brutality
Last updated: November 21st, 2008 12:25 AM (PST)

Why are we not reading more about what is happening in Gaza?

Israel has forbidden deliveries of food from the United Nations into Gaza, in addition to severely rationing water, gas and electricity to all Gazans. Rather than talk to Hamas, the Israeli government chooses punishment for Hamas’ reaction to occupation and blockading.

When will Israel choose diplomacy over brutality? It won’t happen as long as the Israeli government is receiving $30 billion from the United States to continue violence over mediation.
