Yeah, they're such biased sources. All you make is unsubstantiated claims, you have shown your ignorance on many levels already. The fact that you think Hezbollah is a Palestinian group says a lot...

Sorry for the long cut 'n paste....I must be channeling Earth as One!
Now, this is what Israel claims to be doing in the Gaza strip........considering the intense scrutiny applied to all things Israeli by the world in general, it is safe to assume that were these figures NOT accurate, it would be VERY easy to counter these claims.

The Gaza Strip: The humanitarian lifeline
Despite attacks by Hamas, Israel maintains an ongoing humanitarian corridor for the transfer of perishable and staple food items to Gaza. This conduit is used by internationally recognized organizations including the United Nations and the Red Cross. The Gaza Coordination and Liaison Administration works together with international organizations to respond to the needs of the Palestinian population in Gaza.
In 2009 -
At the Cabinet meeting of 22 March 2009, the Government of Israel instructed the bodies dealing with the matter, to enable the entry - without restriction - of foodstuffs to the residents of Gaza from all relevant sources in the framework of the humanitarian efforts.
- 738,576 tons (30,576 trucks) of humanitarian commodities were transferred to the Gaza Strip.
- 22,849 Palestinians exited the Strip, among them 10,544 patients and their companions, exiting for medical treatment in Israel.
- 21,200 international organization staff members entered the Gaza Strip.
- 4,883 tons of medical equipment and medicine entered the Strip, in 572 trucks, based on requests made by the PA and the international community.
Well over a million tons of humanitarian supplies entered Gaza from Israel from January 2009 - May 2010, equaling nearly a ton of aid for every man, woman and child in Gaza. Food and supplies are shipped from Israel to Gaza six days a week, channeled through aid organizations or via Gaza's private sector. Millions of dollars worth of international food aid continually flows through the Israeli humanitarian apparatus, ensuring that there is no food shortage in Gaza.

Essential food products including meat, chicken and fish, grains and legumes, oil, flour, oil, salt and sugar, fresh vegetables and dairy products, in addition to agricultural produce, animal feed, hygiene products, clothing and medicals supplies are among the goods that are regularly delivered to Gaza. Fertilizers that cannot be used to make explosives are shipped into the Strip regularly, as are potato seeds, eggs for reproduction, bees, and equipment for the flower industry.
In 2009, Israel coordinated the transfer of medical supplies for the disabled including wheelchairs, crutches and first aid kits. Other equipment shipped to Gaza include heart-monitors, baby feeding tubes, dental equipment, medical books, ambulance emergency equipment, artificial limbs and infant sleeping bags. In February 2010, Israel facilitated the transfer of mammogram equipment for breast cancer diagnosis, and the first CT machine in Palestinian Red Crescent Society hospitals in the Gaza Strip.
Israel transfers school equipment supplied by UNRWA including notebooks, school bags, writing implements and textbooks, and is coordinating the transfer of 200,000 laptops for Gaza schoolchildren.
Gas for domestic use (cooking and heating) is supplied according to Palestinian demand and is not subject to any limitation by Israel. After the fuel depot at Nahal Oz was repeatedly attacked by Palestinian terrorists from the Gaza Strip, it was forced to limit its operations. The Kerem Shalom crossing has since been adapted to the transfer of fuel and a new gas line with double the capacity to transfer gas was built.
Coordination and processing of requests regarding humanitarian infrastructure, such as water, sewage and electricity systems, in the Gaza Strip is conducted between COGAT and the Palestinian Authority. While the import of cement and iron has been restricted into Gaza since these are used by the Hamas to cast rockets and bunkers, monitored imports of truckloads of cement, iron, and building supplies such as wood and windows are regularly coordinated with international parties.
Israel maintains a corridor for the transfer of medical patients out of Gaza, and about 200 medical staff members go through the crossings every month.
In addition to medical evacuations, the Erez Crossing enables two-way traffic of international organizations' staff between Israel and Gaza as well as Gaza residents with various humanitarian needs.

A first group of Palestinian children suffering from cancer were received at the clinic opened at the Erez crossing as part of Israel's humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza. The children received initial treatment there and were then transferred to hospitals in Israel and abroad according to the serious of their condition - Jan 19, 2009

Absolutely correct! Straight from the Israeli government, which is about as pro-Israeli as you can get.
Which does NOT make the figures untrue...........or the source false.
My challenge was to disprove the claims....which should be easy enough, considering the microscope Israel is under......
And if you can not submit a credible challenge to the facts as stated.....they stand.
You will only accept that which meets your biased standards -

So why does Saudi, Kuwait, Egypt and a host of other Arab Countries want Iran - WITHOUT NUKES
A simple answer would be sufficient - My expectations at times are rather low
Iran with Nukes would set in motion a NuclearArms Race n the Mid EastNo Reply on that as of yet -
A simple answer would be sufficient - My expectations at times are again rather low.
It makes the statistics sketchy at best.
Just like you wouldn't take anything on a Hamas website as a legitimate source.
Here is an interesting read
With all the talk about Iran and the intentions of its nuclear programme it is a shame the West continues to undermine its own position with selective morality and obvious hypocrisy. It seems amazing there can be so much written about this issue, yet so little addresses the obvious question – “for what reasons could Iran want nuclear weapons?”. As Simon Jenkins points out, the answer is as simple as looking at a map. "I would sleep happier if there were no Iranian bomb but a swamp of hypocrisy separates me from overly protesting it. Iran is a proud country that sits between nuclear Pakistan and India to its east, a nuclear Russia to its north and a nuclear Israel to its west. Adjacent Afghanistan and Iraq are occupied at will by a nuclear America, which backed Saddam Hussein in his 1980 invasion of Iran. How can we say such a country has ‘no right’ to nuclear defence?" (Guardian (18/1/07, “The West has picked a fight with Iran it cannot win”).
Why Does Iran Want Nuclear Weapons?
A blogger?
From ABC no less?
It is an interesting read though.
But other then facts about numbers and data, the bulk of it is an opinion, that makes several assumption.
They also support Terror Groups - Hamas -Hezbollah and their religious enemies - The Taliban
The US offered Scurity Guarantees - Reason the fear Russia is simple
The underbelley of Russia is dominated by Muslims - They do not want Iran supporting terror groups in the regions
Lastly - Why did Iran turn down Security Guarantees - They want to be the major power in the Mid East - It will alss start a Nuclear Arms race.
It builds Tolerance for those that need it -
For those of us like myself, loaded with Tolernance a high Deet spray work quite well
And I now add you along with the other Dumbo to putting the word Simple into Simpleton.
We at Con Con are blessed - We now have twins - Oh the fussing that will go on with everyone -Are the Boys or Girls-
Well they are Boys and I suggest the color Pink for those of you that are familiar with the color coding under the Nazi Regime at the Death camps. No - It did not always mean a person with a preference for their same sex.
