It's all over the place princess, try google. http://www.mfa.gov.il/MFA/About+the...feline_Gaza_25-May-2010.htm?tr=y&auid=6420566
And as yet you have failed to refute the now accepted fact that Israel has imposed a draconian and somewhat perverse blockade on a part of its own state. You have so far not provided any evidence of freedom of movement of rubber ducks and Transformers into Gaza from the rest of Israel. The abused will most often turn into abusers themselves and this is the only way we can explain the twisted delight Israelis find in punishing the non combatants of Gaza.
It's Hamas who is punishing the "non-combatants" of Gaza when they fire rockets into Israel, when they kidnap and hold hostage an Israeli soldier, when they use ambulances to transport terrorists, residential buildings to hide weapons, school yards to build rocket launchers. It's the "non-combatants" of Gaza who are punishing themselves when they elect a universally recognized terrorist organization to lead them and to rule their society, when they vote for a party that wages a war against a neighboring state and calls for wiping their neighbor off the map. They have no one to blame but themselves. And no one gives a damn about them in Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Kuwait unless Israel can be blamed for their misery.
On the contrary, the burden of proof is on you. You have yet to provide any evidence whatsoever of this nefarious toy ban on Gaza. However, judging by the other many fairly tales and propaganda pieces you have tried to push in this thread, you will have to pardon the fact that I`m a bit skeptical... LOL!!!
You can check out Reuters, AP or any of the respectable news agencies and they will confirm that toys have been a proscribed item along with potato chips. The MOIN does not publish a full-proscribed list and proscribed items are not always known until attempted entry. I hope that Israel now buckling under international pressure to ease the blockade after the ham fisted and amateurish flotilla raid will make available in English a list of banned items. The MFA link you provided showed a photo of the deadly weapons seized and yet all I see are tools, itâs a little like trying to pass a Mule as an Arabian but no surprise after some Israelâs less than professional military and intelligence operational endeavours recently. Back to your original post about the US-Turkey temporary disconnect and the outrage of mostly Democrat congressmen have shown over the flotilla incident, yeah dream on the war hawks will ensure Turkey gets the hardware the can afford.
The new Israeli-approved product list reportedly includes all food items, toys, stationery, kitchen utensils, mattresses and towels. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/10338199.stm loosening prohibitions on food, toys, school supplies, kitchen utensils, mattresses and other goods entering the territory. http://news.yahoo.com/s/time/20100617/wl_time/08599199739500 For the last three years, Israel has prevented a range of items â including cilantro, fresh meat, margarine and children's toys â from entering the Gaza Strip. The limited food and medicine items cleared for passage were aimed at bolstering Israeli arguments that Gazans were not threatened with a humanitarian crisis. http://www.csmonitor.com/World/Midd...ockade-allowing-building-supplies-and-ketchup Under the new guidelines, those materials will be allowed in to an undetermined extent in coordination with the United Nations, but won't be freely available to private citizens, Israeli officials said. Restrictions on things like school supplies, books, computers and toys are expected to be lifted. http://www.foxnews.com/world/2010/06/16/israel-set-ease-gaza-blockade/ As per your request.
If an Israeli official prevented a shipment that happened to include one box of toys that doesn't mean that there's a toy ban in Gaza. Not even really a good attempt at spin, but after your other epic failures and propaganda I can't say that I'm exactly shocked at this one either. Thanks for confirming that there never was any specific ban on toys in Gaza.
