Israel said Wednesday it expects Egypt to "solve the problem" after at least 50,000 people crossed the downed Gaza-Egyptian border to buy supplies.
Palestinians on Wednesday break through a wall separating Egypt from Gaza.
Palestinians, running out of fuel, food and other supplies after Israel closed Gaza border crossings, poured into Egypt through blown-out and torn-down breaches in the border wall. Egyptian guards stood by without intervening, and Egypt's Foreign Ministry spokesman announced that the nation would remain open to the needy "as long as this is a humanitarian crisis."
"We are not opening the Rafah crossing just for everybody to cross -- we're opening it because it's a very dire humanitarian situation," said spokesman Hassam Zaki.
After the "shopping spree," Zaki said, "We expect everyone to go back to Gaza to their homes within a short period of time."
Ok, I'm going to say what everyone else is thinking: The Palestinians wouldn't have this problem if they hadn't elected a terrorist group as their government. They wouldn't have this problem if they didn't support Hamas firing rockets randomly into Israel, killing innocent civilians. And the White House agrees with me:
"The Palestinians living in Gaza are living under chaos because of Hamas, and the blame has to be placed fully at their feet," White House spokeswoman Dana Perino said.
"It is obviously a situation that is very troubling for Israel and for good reason, it is Hamas's actions of lobbing upwards of 150 rockets a day into their territory that ... caused Israel to implement the blockade," she said.
Let's not forget these are the same people that celebrated the 9/11 attacks:
You reap what you sow, Palestinians. Enjoy your humanitarian disaster that awaits you. You ought to consider yourselves lucky. Israel doesn't even owe you the right to the fuel and food supplies it's sending you now. It could simply cut everything off and let you bleed out.
