"With Israel agreeing to ease its blockade of Gaza, Washington Times columnist Joel Mowbray is concerned that ending the embargo means both a military and morale boost for Hamas.
The embargo has meant the Gaza Palestinians were forced to choose between terror or economic success, without the fallout of a total humanitarian crisis, he writes. Statistics bear out that the primary victim of the embargo has been the economic livelihood of the Palestinians and their infrastructure, without generating hunger or other shortages of basic needs. The overflowing displays at area supermarkets, thousands of live smuggled goats for the sacrifices of Eid ul-Adha, and a population clamoring for Coca-Cola and automobiles all seem to contradict the notion that there is any starvation in the Strip."
