'Israel’s defence and finance ministers announced plans for three illegal settlements in Gaza and more than $400m (£300m) in funding to expand construction in the occupied West Bank, as Israel’s military commander for the region celebrated violent outposts as his “security partners”.'
"They break our legs and tell us to be grateful when they offer us crutches."
The bizarre thing for me is that the government sometimes imposes, and often talks about imposing, sanctions in relation to what it is going on in the West Bank but never in relation to the horrors in Gaza.
Shurely shome mishtake? Not!

An ex-colleague of mine did a talk recently about his time as security and logistics coordinator for an aid agency in Gaza. They were on-ground for about a year (on and off).
If anything their experience is worse than what you hear in the media. The frontline experience of people trapped in a place they did not choose to live and accused of supporting a group they did not choose to be governed by.
The vast majority of people in Gaza are just trying to survive. And sometimes that's not an option. Pretty horrific.

Unfortunately I cannot find a link for the interview with Tom Fletcher that BBC's HARDtalk conducted shortly after his return from Gaza last year, he was one of the few 'Western' diplomats to make it in, so this clip will have to do. Ten months on nothing has really been done to stop the suffering, has it ?
