Gaza Strip Also Wants To Join Russia

FYI.


Gaza Strip also wants to join Russia – Hamas website (Voice of Russia, March 19, 2014):

According to online reports, the treaty on Crimea being accepted into Russia has prompted the setting up of an initiative group that will draw up a proposal for the Palestinian enclave in Israel to hold a referendum on joining the Russian Federation, too. This is reported by the Russian-language version of the Palestinian Information Centre.

The initiative group comprises Russian nationals making their home in Gaza. These are mostly Russian women, totallig some 50,000, who have married Palestinian men but have retained their Russian passports, the report says.

The report quotes a group member as saying that “Moscow has said it will defend Russians anywhere in the world. Meanwhile, we live in a place where Israel has threatened our lives and those of our children for years on end. But if the Gaza Strip joined Russia, we would also have a well-protected border, up-to-date weapons, perhaps, even nuclear weapons. This would make Israel and Egypt speak with Palestinians differently, the activists feel.

They are absolutely unperturbed by the fact that Russia is far away from Gaza. They point out that Gibraltar or the Falkland Islands are also far away from the UK. The activists have no doubt about the outcome of this kind of referendum, the Information Centre points out.

But then, the report about setting up this kind of initiative group has thus far failed to be confirmed by other sources, as well as by other language versions of the Palestinian Information Centre, owned by the radical movement HAMAS, currently at the helm in the Gaza Strip, NEWSru Israel points out. Nor has there been any reaction from the HAMAS leadership to the news. The publication suggests in this context that the Russian language version report is just a canard to attract more readers amid the general interest in the Crimea joining Russia issue.

Also questionable is the reported number of Russian nationals making their home in Gaza. The Russian media reported in December 2012 that the number of Russian passport holders in the Gaza Strip made up slightly fewer than 400.

  1. Can you imagine what is going on in the minds of the murderous yids right now? What options do they have other than to kill every Arab in Gaza & West Bank…..and if they do….the western press will hide it.

  2. I can understand why Gaza wants to Join Russia….the emerging strong man of the East. The only nation with a leader gutsy enough to hit the US back. Their hatred of Israel, with the rest of the world, is well known.
    Israel has certainly asked for it, their treatment of those people is barbaric.
    The US cannot hide it, they are losing power every week. They cannot allow Israel to destroy the Gaza strip…….that would turn everyone against them…..and the US cannot afford it.
    It will be interesting to see what happens.
