UN-Backed Report Warns Of Mass Starvation In Gaza

BBC: Gaza facing famine if fighting continues, UN says 

The United Nations says Gaza is at risk of famine if the war between Israel and Hamas continues. 

A quarter of households - roughly 500,000 people - are facing "catastrophic conditions", a UN food security agency found. 

It says the territory's entire population of roughly 2.2m people is suffering acute food shortages. 

"No-one in Gaza is safe from starvation," said Cindy McCain from the UN's World Food Programme (WFP).

"Humanitarian access is needed now for supplies to flow into and throughout Gaza, and for civilians to safely receive life-saving aid".

  3. Hahahahaha

    That is extremely funny 1255. What irony!!!!


    Because Jesus was speaking to and OF the Jewish pharasies and chief priests at the time!

    It was them that he cast this label on to.

    And no, we who remain true to the vision of Christ and to his legacy, we never forget.

  5. 1:59 PM, true, Jesus was speaking of the Pharisees. However His words are aptly applied to Hamas as well, in my opinion. I hope you don't disagree

  6. He was speaking to the people he knew were going to have him killed. He was not speaking to future generations of arabs, brits or eskimos. He was talking to the Jews.


    And yet they cursed Him and would not believe Him. And He was angry with them, because He was there to sacrifice Himself primarily for them.

    But I will say this, those who intentionally commit acts of evil are in the same league as those Pharisees of 2000 years ago.

    And the New Covenant is not an "Eye for an eye".

    Those Jews and arabs who spill innocent blood will ultimately pay the price for their sins.

    and for 159, we do not forget. but we are commanded to forgive and this we do to the best of our ability and ask forgiveness for our many failures.

    If your intent was to paint the arabs as some kind of universal, timeless scumbags , by using the words of Christ would be hypocritical and truthfully monstereous.

  7. Buddy of mine read that Canada plans on bringing tens of thousands of the Palestinians to Canada next year. The Canadian government upped its goal of new Canadians from 450 thousand to nearly a million. Canada is so screwed.

  8. Said it back in the 80s

    Unless you have a very disciplined society, diversity is not strength. It is a weakness that slowly ,but ultimately rips your society apart.
