Just when you thought you'd seen it all, they pull another atrocious act out of the bag.

My personal opinion is that they are trying to goad Iran, Lebanon or Syria in to a response. I think the US have said no to any further wars (for the time being) but if they can get themselves attacked they can drag the US in to a wider ME conflict.

I'm tired of all this one-sided criticism of Israel........always looking for the worse motivation for all their actions......

Sure, Israel bombed cities full of people, sure, Israel used white phospherus on civilians, sure Israel denied medical help after blowing them to pieces, sure Israel blew-up universities, hospitals, targeted ambulances.

But hey, can't you see that actually warm-heated brave little Israel is just trying to be kind.

After making life so unbearable for the Palestinians for 50 years, now they realize the only merciful thing to do is to just kill them.

Here is the link to the original Reuters Release of this story:

Yes, two things are shocking here:
1) WHY IN THE WORLD has this story been buried, I have not seen it quoted anywhere except on activist blogs?!

2) WHY ON EARTH are the French bowing to these Israeli Fascists and "repatriating" this equipment back to France???

I assume this equipment is a bit heavier than the usual backpack, and with all of the diplomatic hurdles - YES I mean the disgraceful behavior of the Egyptian authorities - getting ANY aid this far, it would seem logical that the people in charge would push a little harder before "giving up" and shipping this water-purification-equipment back home.

Stop the world I wanna get off...

Parroting Press TV, one of the arms of the totalitarian state, purveyors of "holy weapons" to Hamas? Any fule kno that most of Hamas's kassam rockets are made from ... metal water pipes, unwittingly supplied by Israel in the past. Hamas couldn't give a toss about maintaining the infrastructure when there are rockets to be made and Jews to be killed ... at the instigation of their masters in the above-mentioned Iranian regime. and do I really to need to remind you about the March 2007 Gaza sewage Tsunami, which killed six?

For smug individuals like the previous poster who only believes what his own propaganda minister feeds him, the second poster provided the original Reuters link.

The source quoted was the French Foreign Ministry Spokesman Eric Chevallier, not an Iranian source, although it is interesting that this story was not picked up by any other Western media.

That says alot more about the "parrots" in Western Media and the Zionist Lobby, than it does about any criticism regarding Iran.

As for the other juvenile comments made by the previous poster, some lonely people seem to need the internet as an outlet for their witty anecdotes, rather than as a source for information. Such folks should be pitied I guess, but vis a vis "weapons made of waterpipes", if this email could be fashioned into a rock, I know which direction it would now be heading to.
