Hamas Responsible for Hardship in Gaza

(Ha'aretz) Yom-Tov Samia - The main culprit responsible for the Gazans' condition is Hamas, which maliciously sacrifices the population's welfare because of its war on Israel. The Israel Defense Forces gave Gazans the option to be treated at a field hospital near the Erez crossing (both during the Gaza operation and afterward). Hamas prevented this. The IDF transferred hundreds of thousands of tons of food and medical aid to Gaza even while Kassam rockets and Grad missiles were falling on schools and the hospital in Ashkelon. Hamas intercepted these deliveries. Hamas prefers to invest in rearmament rather than civilian infrastructure. Maj.-Gen. (res.) Dr. Yom-Tov Samia is the former head of the IDF Southern Command.
