If you use the circumstances of May 30, 2010 as a starting point and what happened to the Gaza Freedom Flotilla Ships and personnel in blocking any help in material goods for the Gaza Strip Palestinians, you'll find news idems from the various news agencies, of the Gaza Strip being inundated with Humanitarian Groups and Delegations, along with Advocacy Peace Fellowships. Most, if not, all are non profit organizations backed by supporters with heavy cash flows. In the three years or so that has passed since the Flotilla incident, how have these "Humanitarian Group's" improved the situation in Gaza Strip and for the Palestinians trying to survive there? Where's the food, clothes, better living conditions, health and prenatal care? Where's the assess to fuel needed for cooking and heating? Why is electricity nonexistent or only offered for a few short hours a day without any schedule for time, day or duration? Word's are only word's if not backed by action and DOing - which is the basis of these organizations.
I reason, these Peace and Humanitarian groups are in place, to outwardly look like they are mitigating helpful solutions, when in reality, they're internally stirring the pot of confusion and strife, further degrading the situation by reaffirming the conditions and standards that have been imposed on the Palestinian's. Pick any news idem or read any forum or archives of any of these Peace organization's and somewhere in the talk or conversation, they'll mention "they visited" the Gaza Strip or contacted a group or individual. Why don't they spend the night in one of these dwellings and with the people they are there to help? Who are they really helping, other than the Israeli Tourist Trade and posh accommodations via donations to a non-profit organization? Why are these "outside" Delegations and Fellowships allowed unlimited access back and forth across Border's - while Resident's are often denied at Checkpoint's?
There's no way of looking at this situation, without being deeply affected in the conditions imposed upon these people and "the unity" they have held together, while trying to keep what is rightfully - there's.
Looking from the outside in, it's hard to realize, that the help offered has only been in "talk's and promises" and those in a position to make a difference - hold onto the purse strings for their own benefit and advancement.
