Medical Supply

thatartistwin asked:


Why have the shop owners not donated these things since the entire world is putting together a humanitarian effort to send medicine, food, and everything imaginable? Why are Haiti citizens not ALL joined in to help their own people?
Kuhita: So, what you are saying is that everyone who is donating to these people who are seriously wounded and dieing should SELL it to them instead?

Ingrid: Because I saw the pics and film of what they were buying. There were no scripts involved (not to mention prescriptions are not needed for every tiny thing like they are in the USA or other countries).

asked:


if the citizens were really a priority to the U. S. government that city would have been rebuilt by now. there are people still living and dying in shelters with not enough food and water and medical supplies. it is a pathetic sad look at reality in the U. S. and President Bush, “you suck. wake up and help your people” ……….. from Lennerd ( * O * )!!!!

In Honor of Moja asked:


After a great disaster, whether because of terrorism or other causes, you may find that banks will be closed and atm’s won’t work, and that credit cards and personal checks will not be accepted. How will you buy food, assuming that any is available, during the time before normal conditions return, if they ever do? Most experts recommend an emergency cash fund of $1,000 in small bills, and some gold and silver coins. It is also advisable to keep emergency supplies of food and water, medical supplies, paper products, and any items for special needs of your own, not to mention some means of protecting your famiy and yourself.

Liberal AssKicker asked:


Hamas is obviously able to smuggle or by military grade weapons to wage a perpetual war on Israel, why are they not trying to smuggle in food or medical supplies?

And why are the idiots on the left still blaming Israel for starving children and families?

I am certain that Sri Lanka can provide a list of supplies that are in need for our physicians to tend to our citizens, perhaps Russia should also be consulted to meet emergent needs.

Self-adjoint Operator asked:


Lie #1) Israel is only targeting legitimate military sites and is seeking to protect innocent lives. Israel never targets civilians.

The Gaza Strip is one of the most densely populated pieces of property in the world. The presence of militants within a civilian population does not, under international law, deprive that population of their protected status, and hence any assault upon that population under the guise of targeting militants is, in fact, a war crime.

Moreover, the people Israel claims are legitimate targets are members of Hamas, which Israel says is a terrorist organization. Hamas has been responsible for firing rockets into Israel. These rockets are extremely inaccurate and thus, even if Hamas intended to hit military targets within Israel, are indiscriminate by nature. When rockets from Gaza kill Israeli civilians, it is a war crime. Hamas has a military wing. However, it is not entirely a military organization, but a political one. Members of Hamas are the democratically elected representatives of the Palestinian people. Dozens of these elected leaders have been kidnapped and held in Israeli prisons without charge. Others have been targeted for assassination, such as Nizar Rayan, a top Hamas official. To kill Rayan, Israel targeted a residential apartment building. The strike not only killed Rayan but two of his wives and four of his children, along with six others. There is no justification for such an attack under international law. This was a war crime.

Other of Israel’s bombardment with protected status under international law have included a mosque, a prison, police stations, and a university, in addition to residential buildings.

Moreover, Israel has long held Gaza under siege, allowing only the most minimal amounts of humanitarian supplies to enter. Israel is bombing and killing Palestinian civilians. Countless more have been wounded, and cannot receive medical attention. Hospitals running on generators have little or no fuel. Doctors have no proper equipment or medical supplies to treat the injured. These people, too, are the victims of Israeli policies targeted not at Hamas or legitimate military targets, but directly designed to punish the civilian population.
Lie #2) Hamas violated the cease-fire. The Israeli bombardment is a response to Palestinian rocket fire and is designed to end such rocket attacks.

Israel never observed the cease-fire to begin with. From the beginning, it announced a “special security zone” within the Gaza Strip and announced that Palestinians who enter this zone will be fired upon. In other words, Israel announced its intention that Israeli soldiers would shoot at farmers and other individuals attempting to reach their own land in direct violation of not only the cease-fire but international law.

Despite shooting incidents, including ones resulting in Palestinians getting injured, Hamas still held to the cease-fire from the time it went into effect on June 19 until Israel effectively ended the truce on November 4 by launching an airstrike into Gaza that killed five and injured several others.

Israel’s violation of the cease-fire predictably resulted in retaliation from militants in Gaza who fired rockets into Israel in response. The increased barrage of rocket fire at the end of December is being used as justification for the continued Israeli bombardment, but is a direct response by militants to the Israeli attacks.

Israel’s actions, including its violation of the cease-fire, predictably resulted in an escalation of rocket attacks against its own population.

Lie #3) Hamas is using human shields, a war crime.

There has been no evidence that Hamas has used human shields. The fact is, as previously noted, Gaza is a small piece of property that is densely populated. Israel engages in indiscriminate warfare such as the assassination of Nizar Rayan, in which members of his family were also murdered. It is victims like his dead children that Israel defines as “human shields” in its propaganda. There is no legitimacy for this interpretation under international law. In circumstances such as these, Hamas is not using human shields, Israel is committing war crimes in violation of the Geneva Conventions and other applicable international law.
Lie #4) Arab nations have not condemned Israel’s actions because they understand Israel’s justification for its assault.The populations of those Arab countries are outraged at Israel’s actions and at their own governments for not condemning Israel’s assault and acting to end the violence. Simply stated, the Arab governments do not represent their respective Arab populations. The populations of the Arab nations have staged mass protests in opposition to not only Israel’s actions but also the inaction of their own governments and what they view as either complacency or complicity in Israel’s crimes. Moreover, the refusal of Arab nations to take action to come to the aid of the Palestinians is not beca

Simply stated, the Arab governments do not represent their respective Arab populations. The populations of the Arab nations have staged mass protests in opposition to not only Israel’s actions but also the inaction of their own governments and what they view as either complacency or complicity in Israel’s crimes. Moreover, the refusal of Arab nations to take action to come to the aid of the Palestinians is not because they agree with Israel’s actions, but because they are submissive to the will of the US, which fully supports Israel. Egypt, for instance, which refused to open the border to allow Palestinians wounded in the attacks to get medical treatment in Egyptian hospitals, is heavily dependent up
dependent upon US aid, and is being widely criticized within the population of the Arab countries for what is viewed as an absolute betrayal of the Gaza Palestinians. Even Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has been regarded as a traitor to his own people for blaming Hamas for the suffering of the people of Gaza. Palestinians are also well aware of Abbas’ past perceived betrayals in conniving with Israel and the US to sideline the democratically elected Hamas government, culminating in a counter-coup by Hamas in which it expelled Fatah (the military wing of Abbas’ Palestine Authority) from the Gaza Strip. While his apparent goal was to weaken Hamas and strengthen his own position, the Palestinians and other Arabs in the Middle East are so outraged at Abbas that it is unlikely he will be able to govern effectively
. Lie #5) Israel is not responsible for civilian deaths because it warned the Palestinians of Gaza to flee areas that might be targeted. Israel claims it sent radio and telephone text messages to residents of Gaza warning them to flee from the coming bombardment. But the people of Gaza have nowhere to flee to. They are trapped within the Gaza Strip. It is by Israeli design that they cannot escape across the border. It is by Israeli design that they have no food, water, or fuel by which to survive. It is by Israeli design that hospitals in Gaza have no electricity and few medical supplies with which to treat the injured and save lives. And Israel has bombed vast areas of Gaza, targeting civilian infrastructure and other sites with protected status under international law. No place is safe within the Gaza Strip

In Articulo Mortis asked:


Why doesn’t Israel get the praise they deserve?

If a murderer barricades himself in your neighbors home, and the police and SWAT team arrive to bring him out, shouldn’t they be allowed to cut water and electricity to that house in an attempt to get that murderer to surrender? Of course they should. So why is Israel being condemned for essentially doing the same thing?

I bet you can’t answer the question without adding inane questions and irrelevent facts of your own. That’s because you agree with me: Israel should be pounding the day-lights out of this rogue, terrorist nation called Palestine. Am I correct?

My point exactly asked:


your child is dying and you cannot leave the city to get help.
are these ppl just.

this is what the IDF is doing to the Palestinians. they have closed down the checkpoints in Gaza. the ppl cannot leave for help and noone can come in to help. they are running short on food and water and children and old ppl are dying. is this humane?

you can say whatever you want, but it has nothing to do with terrorism. these children dying have nothing to do with terrorism. if you ask me the IDF are terrorists. they are depriving humans of thier needs..
