Off to Gaza - Funds required urgently

**Winston001** · 9th August 2010, 21:09

The "Kia Ora Gaza" aid supporters are looking for $100,000 from New Zealanders so they can drive trucks from London to Gaza with relief supplies. I admire them. Good effort.

So I thought I'd better step up and help ensure everything is kosher....

and go and help the Israelis check the truck loads. After all the good people driving the trucks wouldn't want to find out they'd been used to carry guns, explosives, etc. Such betrayal by Hamas is unlikely I know but better safe than sorry.

And while there I will ask them to insist on the release of Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit who has been held by Hamas for 4 years. Seems a small thing really and I know these kind Kiwis will say Kia Ora to him......

But I'm a bit low on funds. I reckon $20,000 should do it - your support is cherished.

How do we know all the money is going to a 'good cause'?

And just like the good spirited christians in Afghanistan they can get themselves killed, held for ransom and/or tortured.

I am currently helping a prominent NZ company help those poor, under fed, hard working Kllia beez type fellas ( cant think of a suitable word that would describe them sorry)
Anyway Kirin brewery's to which I lend my earnest support, give lion Nathan , huge wedges of cash , which produces that brown stuff that keeps these poor disadvantaged Yooves the support they need

So , as much as I would love to steer some of my hard earned towards your worthy cause , but as you can see I am already contributing as much as I can
in fact I shall contribute , a liitle more

Sorry , but I hope the trip is worthwile

Do it on a credit card bro ! If you insist on upping the odds on getting yaself shot up and blowed to bits, ya may as well do it in the red !

Well I must say I'm a little disappointed. Ante up chaps, I'm doing my bit for world peace here. The aid convoy hopes to have 600 vehicles arrive at the Israeli border and embarrass the IDF soldiers by sheer weight of numbers.

So I thought I'd give the army a hand for a bit of balance. If its good enough for 6 Kiwis to go to Gaza to give aid, its good enough for one of us to go along and help with the security checks - hell, I can look up an activist's backpassage with the best of them.

Think this should be in jokes and humour

I thought they had the balance all sorted. Start shooting and keep shooting untill the balance is heavilly weighted in their favour. Sorry dude your on your own.

Yeah.....'spose....but Hamas have been shooting for decades and the Palestinian people are worse off than ever. Doesn't seem like a good model.

Pete Bethune is not active currently it's a wonder he isn't involved with the convoy of do-gooder's!

Why does NZ produce so many "Samaritans" and so many fuckwitts for any cause other than getting our own house in order?

(sigh) Then again if you take a look at our parliament, there's a full house of fuckwitts practising there too already!

Not that the Israeli's are any better than the Palestinians, clearly the whole world is fucked in the head!

True, sometimes the loneliness does get to me!
