Menachem – “these” people are from Sderot. They had rockets fall on them. Have you ever been to Sderot? Do you realize what an act of rachmanut it is for people from Sderot to return rocket fire with kindness? This was such an apolitical campaign. The notion was simply that there are people that are cold, and innocent children that are hungry. We don’t have much to spare but here it is.

I dunno Menachem. I can understand your anger and all, but dude – how else do you go about turning an enemy into something more benign? You have better ideas that don’t involve wholesale slaughter or the commission of war crimes? I’m all ears. In the meantime, the 7 truckloads of humanitarian aid represented a nice gesture.

There is a word for offering aid to an enemy during time of war. The word is treason. Did these individuals do anything for the children of Sderot for the two years when that city was the most bombed city on the planet? Do these lunatics realize that they are giving comfort to the very women and children who come to murder Jews daily. Who celebrate the bombing of our homes and cities? The same people who celebrated when seventeen people were murdered at Sbarro in Yerushalyim?
These individuals are treasonous. They should have their citizenship revoked. Spit them out. They are beyond redemption.

Part III?

The Kibbutz Movement sponsored a two-week vacation in Israel for orphan from Gaza. Hamas refused to let them leave.

It’s pretty despicable that with 1200 dead men, women & children in Gaza, the story is how the brave southern Israelis, defending themselves against attacks by sugar rockets against the barbarian savages, still find it in their hearts to give aid to these animals.

To wit, LB, Gisha reported in the JTA today:

Citing what they said were more than 300,000 people still without access to running water, sewage running in the streets and 200,000 people still without electricity for the 25th day, the groups said in a statement, "Israel itself brought the humanitarian systems in Gaza to the brink of collapse -- and then gave them the final push. The tremendous number of injured -- over 5,000 -- requires substantial investment in rehabilitation. It is incumbent upon Israel to allow the movement of people and goods into and out of the Gaza Strip."

Nineteen Israeli NGOs issued joint statements and petitioned the government together. I don't think these are anti-Israel groups. But you're welcome to characterize them however your worldview sees loyal dissent. Perhaps anti-Israel is indeed your only option.
