Grenzen Gaza weer open na terreuraanval op IDF jeep

 
Het is bijna ondoenlijk om de grenzen te openen voor humanitaire hulp aan Gaza en tegelijkertijd duidelijk te maken dat geen aanvallen op Israel meer getolereerd zullen worden. Dat kan men alleen duidelijk maken door tijdelijk de grenzen te sluiten of militaire aktie te ondernemen...
