Thanks to Crisanthemama for pointing out that the Israeli blockade of Gaza extends to more than weapons. (Read here. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/the-pasta-paper-and-hearing-aids-that-could-threaten-israeli-security-1635143.html) It does not surprise me that the Israelis are being pigheaded, but I am surprised that they are being small minded and silly. Banning lentils and macaroni for what reason? Still, I don't see anyone who opposes the blockade proposing a solution to the problem of importing weapons, about which Israel has a legitimate interest. As I suggested, it looks like a matter for the UN to handle.
