Teachers go on strike in Palestine

Posted September 4, 2006 at 4:12 am by Jessica

Apparently, the U.S. withholding monetary aid from the newly elected terrorist organization, Hamas, who has recently been elected by the Palestinian peoplen to run their government, is proving to bite the Palestinian people in the butt. Teachers have not been paid salaries for six months. What do you expect when the people’s voices represent the desire for death, destruction and violent hatred towards Jews and Christians. This tends to cause slight hostility in the world.

The strike is supposedly an act of pressure to unite the government and make Hamas concede to the fact that Israel can and does exist. So, the strike itself is a hopeful sign that some of the people want a more united government and one that doesn’t preach contempt and violence.

Personally, I don’t think Hamas gives a crap if the children are in school or not. They probably welcome ignorance and they certainly don’t care about children. As people willing to kill their own children in order to kill a few Jews or Christians, these aren’t exactly the kind of people that value the traditional wants and desires of humanity (peace and happiness). An uneducated population would only serve their purposes to brainwash and suppress the people even further. A hungry country becomes even more desperate, but what are we to do? We have given them a ton of aid in the past and it only benefited a few in dictatorial positions, to buy mansions and live the life of luxury. The people aren’t told that we have given them aid. There is no freedom of speech or freely flowing and accurate news. All the people know is their terrorist sponsored propaganda.

I guess you get the government you deserve…

Children Bear Brunt of Palestinian Standoff

Most Palestinian children did not start the school year on Saturday as Palestinian teachers and government employees announced their largest strike since Hamas came to power in January.
 
Teachers and civil servants are striking because many have not received salaries in six months.
 
The strike is said to be spearheaded by supporters of Fatah in order to pressure Hamas into accepting a unity government and resolving the current political and financial crisis.
 
Hamas, designated a terrorist organization by Israel and the United States, came to power in the January legislative elections.
 
Most international aid money to the Palestinian Authority (P.A.) was subsequently frozen. But Hamas has refused to fall into line with international demands, which include renouncing terrorism, recognizing Israel and acknowledging previously signed agreements with Israel.
 
P.A. Chairman Mahmoud ‘Abbas, who is also a senior Fatah member, hopes a unity government will force Hamas into recognizing Israel and help ease the embargo on the P.A.
 
The P.A. employs 165,000 workers, most of whom have not received proper salaries in six months.
 
The strike was a success as most teachers did not come to work in both the West Bank and in Gaza, Fatah officials said. Read the rest…
