Middle Eastern war to become eternal as Israel ends ties with Palestine

Israeli Minister for Foreign Affairs Tzipi Livni stated on Sunday that Israel was not going to support the Palestinian economy financially. On February 19 Israel indefinitely suspended tax and customs payments to the Palestinian Authority. The Palestinian budget will thus lose up to $50 million every month because of this measure. Palestinian workers from the Gaza Strip will be denied Israeli entry. To crown it all, the communication between the Gaza Strip and the West Bank of Jordan will be closed.

The Hamas electoral victory is arguably the best thing to happen for the peace process in years and what is Israel doing? Stealing $50 dollars a month of Palestinian tax money they agreed to collect for them. Well that's a sensible decision, I mean it's not like security in the occupied territory costs more than double that. Of course the Palestinians won't suffer, Iran will top up the vault.
