Today Alert Net<\/a>, a website of the Thomas Reuters Foundation, which says under its name “alerting humanitarians to emergencies,” is reporting that Iran is sending ships to challenge the Israeli blockade of Gaza.  OK.  I have a few questions.  Based on the amount of food and other goods flowing into Gaza from Israel (this is not a blockade in the true sense of the word, the Israelis are simply asking to inspect the goods going into Gaza), where is the humanitarian emergency?  I have posted links to menus of four-star restaurants in Gaza, olympic size swimming pools for children and recent pictures of markets.  I have posted lists of goods and the amounts shipped to Gaza recently.  These pictures and amounts do not show a lack of goods.  If there is a lack of food and other resources in Gaza, I would tend to ask Hamas how it is distributing the goods shipped into Gaza. <\/p>\n

Why is Iran getting involved–to flex their muscles and to create unrest.  <\/p>\n

“A senior Iranian official said earlier Iran’s elite Revolutionary Guards were ready to provide a military escort to aid ships heading to Gaza if Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei so commands. [ID:nLDE65509B] <\/em><\/p>\n

“But the Guards’ deputy head, Hossein Salami, said there were no plans to do so. “Such a thing is not on our agenda,” he was quoted as saying by the official IRNA news agency on Monday.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

While Iran is making sure the world is focused on the ‘blockade’ of Gaza by Israel, Iran will continue to develop its nuclear porgram.  I don’t know if Israel will attack Iran’s nuclear facilities, I just think it is a shame that the current administration in America has not supported the green revolution that would have made any attack unnecessary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
