Gazans line up outside banks as cash runs out

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - A severe cash shortage gripped the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip on Monday as tens of thousands of people were unable to withdraw money from banks in the poverty-stricken Palestinian territory.

Why is there more than enough money to make millionaires - literally millionaires - in the tunnelling business? What happened to the crushing gas shortage? Yet there aren't enough shekels in circulation to feed the average Arab living in Gaza. Silly question. Gaza (and Yehuda and Shomron) is run by a bunch a greedy, intransigent, blood thirsty, death-cult loving Arabs who care more about themselves and their movement than the average Arab on the street. Let the average person live in squalor, feed them an all-encompassing dose of death culture, and produce propaganda to lie, obfuscate and block the organizations and countries (Israel) that want to help them.

What happened to the crushing gas shortage? We saw cars parked in the street. Idle ambulances because they lacked gasoline. There was untold mayhem and suffering just a short while ago because the Arabs in Gaza (and thanks to the AP and other jaundiced media outlets). Oy! What will be? People were dying because there wasn't enough petrol to run the electric plants and the plastered pictures of people getting dialysis who might be in jeopardy because Israel didn't send enough gas. That was one big goose egg. A good propaganda piece by those in charge of Gaza and helped by their co-conspirators - the AP and the other new media.

Haniyeh: Hamas won't halt smuggling into Gaza

Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh denied on Friday that Hamas had agreed to stop weapons-smuggling efforts on Gaza's border with Egypt as part of the cease-fire deal with Israel, and claimed that it was incapable of such action.

According to a Reuters report, Haniyeh - speaking to worshipers ahead of Friday prayers in Gaza City - said: "We cannot talk about stopping smuggling because it is something beyond our ability as a government and we did not give a commitment in this regard."
Haniyeh added that Hamas would not force other organizations in Gaza to abide by the truce, but added that they had nevertheless agreed to it voluntarily.
In response government spokesperson Mark Regev said that the cease-fire agreement included a halt to weapons-smuggling and to attacks by all Gaza groups.
"Anyone who says otherwise apparently wants to destroy the calm before it has a chance to really succeed," he said.
