And this while plains and helicopters are patrolling over the Gaza stripe the whole time. Hamas says the so called ceasefire is not enough, the borders must opened. By the way Obama said the same as well (source AP). Israel says that they would not do so till the weapon smuggling is through the tunnels is stopped and that the tunnels are closed. However, without these tunnels Gaza would not have anything to eat as all food comes through these tunnels. Plus, why does Israel have the right to dictate that the Palestinians should not have weapons to defend themselves from its never ending aggressions? Well,I would accept stopping weapon deliveries to the Palestinians if Israel stops getting weapons from Europe and the US as well. They are breaking international law (since 60 years regularly) and committing war crimes. Why doesn't the world boycott them?

It is quite obvious that nothing changed and that there will be no change in Europe-US position. So, what would be the next step?
Next step is for the moment to take war criminals to the international court and make sure that Israel or at least Egypt let food, aids and construction material pass freely while Palestinians should spend sometime in finding out who represents them. If the US envoy is really serious about things he can make things move.
