Gaza Tyre Burning Is Bad... Because Of Tyre Shortage.
#1
I love how the need to report a ridiculous story gives away timelines and negates previous articles.

If you recall, the mainstream media reported that the people of Gaza protested due to the US opening
their embassy in Jerusalem. Yet in reality, it's a weekly -if not daily, event.

The BBC reported:

Quote:14th May 2018.
'Death toll rises to 52 - health officials
Palestinian health ministry officials now say at least 52 people have been killed by Israeli
forces at the protests on the Israel-Gaza border, and more than 2,200 others injured.

The death toll makes Monday the deadliest day since the start six weeks ago of a series of
protests dubbed the "Great March of Return", along the Israel-Gaza border fence.
More than 100 Palestinian fatalities have been reported over those six weeks...'
BBC:

But what the BBC omit (again!) is:

Quote:'4 January -A 17-year-old Palestinian near Ramallah was killed during what IDF sources described as a violent riot in Deir Nidham.
9 January -A volunteer medic resident and Rabbi of Havat Gilad, Raziel Shevach, was shot dead by an unidentified assailant while
driving his vehicle near his home on Route 60 in the West Bank.
11 January -A Palestinian was shot dead near Gaza's border fence, reportedly during a protest against the US recognition of Jerusalem
as Israel's capital. A Palestinian was killed between the villages of Iraq Burin and Til in northern West Bank after Israeli troops reported
they were under attack from a "massive barrage of rocks."
15 January -Israeli troops shot dead a 24-year-old Palestinian during clashes that broke out near the West Bank city of Qalqilya, bringing
the total number of Palestinian fatalities to 18 since Trump's announcement to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital in December.
18 January -Israeli soldiers killed a Palestinian militant and captured another one in Jenin, saying they were part of the Hamas cell that
killed rabbi Shevach the week before.

4 February -A 19-year-old Palestinian was killed and four others were injured during clashes in the Wadi Burqin neighborhood of Jenin
as part of the ongoing search for the terror cell leader that killed rabbi Shevach.
5 February -An Israeli man was stabbed to death in a terror attack at a bus station outside the West Bank settlement of Ariel.
6 February -During an Israeli raid in the village of Yamun near Jenin, the main operative responsible for the murder of Rabbi Shevach was
killed, and his house was demolished. According to a Shin Bet investigation, the cell he headed was planning to carry out additional attacks.
During clashes between Israeli forces and Palestinian rioters in the city of Nablus, the Palestinian Health Ministry reported that one Palestinian
was killed and 110 were injured, six of them critically, as IDF soldiers were on a manhunt for Abed al-Karim Adel Asi, suspected of killing an
Israeli man outside the settlement of Ariel the day before.
7 February -An Israeli civilian was lightly wounded in a stabbing attack in the West Bank settlement of Karmei Tzur north of Hebron.
Another security guard who was present at the scene shot the assailant dead.
16 February -A 19 year-old Palestinian was shot during a protest near the Gaza perimeter fence and died five days later.
18 February -Israeli tank fire killed two Palestinian teenagers in Gaza during attacks against 18 targets belonging to militant groups
in response to an explosion that wounded four Israeli soldiers.
22 February -A Palestinian man was shot dead in Jericho after running at Israeli soldiers with a metal object.
25 February -A Palestinian was killed when the Israeli navy fired on the boat he and two others were sailing in after the boat ignored
warnings and strayed from a permitted fishing area in northern Gaza.

3 March -A 59-year-old Palestinian farmer was shot dead when he approached the perimeter fence of Israel's border.
4 March -Three Israelis were lightly injured after a car ramming attack in Acre.
9 March -A 24-year-old Palestinian was killed in Hebron and many others were injured in clashes with Israeli forces. According to Palestinian
sources, the victim was severely handicapped, while the Israeli army stated he was holding a firebomb.
10 March -A 19-year-old Palestinian was killed during clashes between Palestinians and Israeli settlers in the West Bank.
16 March -At least two Israeli soldiers were killed and two injured in the West Bank after a Palestinian drove his vehicle into them.
The attacker sustained light injuries.
18 March -A 32-year old Israeli man was fatally stabbed by a Palestinian in Jerusalem's Old City. The attacker was shot dead by a nearby police
officer.
30 March -During the 2018 Land Day protests that began on March 30, at least 32 Palestinians were killed and thousands were injured during
clashes with Israeli troops at the Gaza-Israel border...'
SOURCE:

So I think we can assume the protests are not isolated or occasional incidents. It's a regular occurrence and you can pick a side.
But think on that, every week an active assault takes place during the condescending reports of saving the dolphins, carbon-footprints
and climate change.

The first-world needs to get a grip on it's refuse-systems, it's causing mayhem for the Amazon forest and the children are coughing in China.
What is a civilised nation to do...? Oh wait, I have an idea.


Quote:Gaza demonstrators hit by car tyre shortage as Israel blocks imports
Weekly rallies by Palestinians in the region regularly feature burning tyres, but now the importing of them has been banned.

'Demonstrators in Gaza may soon have to look for a new protest accessory of choice after Israel blocked the import of car tyres into
the strip.

Young man taking time off from work to help make the sky dirty.

Images from weekly rallies by Palestinians in the region regularly feature the sight of burning tyres, which create a thick black smoke to
obscure the vision of Israeli snipers and create a more intimidating atmosphere.
They also provide cover for protesters to launch rocks, firebombs and grenades towards troops on the other side of the fence dividing
Gaza and Israel.

Al Gore Says F*ck-all.

But now, following in the footsteps of items such as chocolate, medicines and fuel, those living in Gaza are having to cope with a car tyre
shortage. The halting of imports by Israel has driven the prices sky-high, which has proven not just a problem for protesters, but also of
course for motorists.

How religious zeal improves life in a community.

Khaled Hamad is a taxi driver and the shortage is having a big impact on his business, which he says has gone down significantly since
Israel began clamping down on the imports earlier this year. According to Rushdi al Khour, head of the association of Gaza spare parts
merchants, which coordinates the imports, the shortage has caused the cost of a pair of tyres to leap from $120 (£93) to $300 (£233).

"This is a wrong decision by the Israeli side," he said of the ban. "Lift the siege and the protests will stop."...'

Really?!!!!!

Quote:'..Ironically, the tyre ban has had a greater impact on motorists and businessmen than it has had on protesters, who can for now rely on
old ones left discarded in garages, fields and roadsides across the territory. The blockade on Gaza was first introduced by Israel and
Egypt in 2007, when the militant group Hamas took control.
Israel claims it is necessary to isolate Hamas, with the fence restricting the movement of people and goods...'
SKY News:

Burning tyres bad.
