I know there is a lot of problems with food drops from helicopters but what about getting antibiotics, bandages, stetescopes, blood pressure arm bands, and other basic medical supplies be dropped off at that main hospital they keep showing on CNN that they are saying people are getting gangrene. At least they can have some comfort - pain pills, etc…

Denying and restricting the right to clean drinking water, deliberately destroying the sanitation systems of a neighbour and bombing the power stations of an adjacent nation. Putting in place a naval blockade that starves a country of a the goods that a nation needs to be able to feed itself, and the medical supplies to care for its people. Denying a country’s right to have international flights and consistently and deliberately for no reason, destroying the agricultural land and crops a country would need to survive. What would these actions be called ?
These are well documented facts, deny them all you like, its Israel that invented modern terrorism and sustains itself using the same means, you would think they should know better. You don’t need a history lesson. its unfolding before your very eyes, on TV with your meal on your knee.
