"Because" misses the CHOLERA , THE MALARIA , The POLIO, the SHISTOSOMIASIS
etc with which his fellow meccan dogs infected the waters of palestine
aka Judea/israel since their unwelcomed arrivial some 1200 years ago
Bullshit!
Here's the truth...
Save the Children and Medical Aid for Palestinians released a report this week on the impact of the blockade on the health of children in Gaza. “Gaza’s only fresh water source is now too dangerous to drink and is contaminated with fertiliser and human waste,” the agencies warn, noting that Gaza is one of the most densely populated ares in the world, with more than 4,500 people per square kilometer).
A press release accompanying the report adds:
Since the blockade started, the number of children under three being treated for watery diarrhoea has doubled. High levels of nitrate – found in faeces and fertiliser – is also linked to some cancers and is a massive risk to pregnant women.
Gaza’s sewage system is also completely broken, much of it destroyed during Operation Cast Lead and treatment plants are overloaded or lack fuel. Open cesspits sit right next to family homes and in just the first two months of this year, three children drowned in open sewers.
The agencies add that the restrictions placed on the movement of people and goods in an out of Gaza, and the long-term poverty as a result of the crippling of Gaza’s economy, means that “families are unable to buy nutritious food and are less able to produce nutritious food themselves.” Indeed, one-third of Gaza’s children are living in poverty. Malnutrition-related conditions such as stunting and anemia are therefore on the rise in Gaza.
Meanwhile, the agencies report, “Since 2007, 605 children in Gaza have been killed and 2,179 injured as a direct result of the conflict,
As far as passage into Israeli hospitals...
Israeli movement restrictions have also prevented patients from accessing specialized treatment outside of Gaza, and prevent medical practitioners from advancing their training. Israel has also conditioned the issuing of travel permits for medical treatment on cooperation with its spy agencies.
“The 5 most frequent reasons for referrals are for cardiovascular, oncology, ophthalmology, orthopedics, or neurosurgery treatment,” WHO says.
Palestinian hospitals in East Jerusalem are the main specialized centers, but Israel has denied permits to nearly 12,000 patients, or their requests were delayed past their hospital appointment date.
“In the past two years, 618 patients were called for interrogation by Israeli security after applying for a permit,” WHO says.
The main Palestinian teaching hospitals are in East Jerusalem, but medics from Gaza are often denied permits to attend training courses.
You fuckers just can't stop lying, can you?
Please link your information, Loinboy. Is it current? Is it 30 years old? Was it released last week? I can't tell from your lack of a link, and you're using pretty strong language, far stronger in its ugliness than is required by people who just want there to be peace and plenty for people who claim they're being damaged by people who claim they're doing all they can for Gazans in providing pure water. From your description, it sounds like you think raw sewage is being pumped into Gaza. It's not like Israelis to bring sour gifts to people in need of clean water. It is likely the water is pumped from water that is as pure as what they have in Israel if not better. In their faith, they are obedient to the instruction of giving good gifts to people who are down and out as the Gazans claim they are. Leopards don't change their spots. Israelis are good neighbors by command and practice of their faith. Why are you smearing them? Where is your proof?
If the water is as bad as you claim it is, how can it be there are 4500 Gazans living in such a small area? They'd all be dead of dysentery if what you were saying is true. Use your head, Loinboy. Your story is difficult at best to believe on account of the statistics you provide.
Why are you blaming Israelis for 3 children drowning in open sewers? Where were the parents of these children? Parents in other parts of the world do not allow their children to play near sewers and are required by the societies they live in to protect their prodigy from danger or be accused of negligence. Why are you putting the onus on anyone except the parents? That defies beliefs, really, it does, for parents to send their children out into danger with zero supervision. Who do you think you are kidding? Why are you demanding Israelis to take responsibility from parents for their child rearing responsibilities? You are quite frankly, not making good sense to people who weigh issues based on known facts, and I am not understanding your viewpoint based on what I know to be true about Jewish traditions. They are required by religious law to help those who desperately need help. Your claim that they're sending death and disease to people who are actually in a state of population expansion is not making sense. Your claim Israel has to follow children out the door in the morning to make sure nothing bad happens to them is not consistent with their role as superparents. It's not their job to follow Gazan children around with a safety net. That is the direct responsibility of the childrens' parents.
Make a better case than a lot of charges drummed up by sources whose speech is so vile you have so far refused to post a link.
What is the statistic provided for the number of cases of polio in Gaza? My information states, " Israeli officials said the government would make the vaccine available for free to all residents of Israel, the West Bank and Gaza," and that between 1983-1988 only 3 cases were reported at which time Israeli officials increased availability of polio vaccines from four to five to eliminate all incidents of illness in all populations across Israel and Gaza.
