Lefties worldwide are foaming...(not!)

AMMAN - The professional associations on Thursday said Egypt has refused to allow their Gaza-bound humanitarian aid convoy to enter its territories.

“With great regret, we received the news that Egypt does not intend to allow the aid convoy to go through its territory to Gaza. We are surprised and saddened by this decision,” Professional Associations Council President Ahmad Armouti told The Jordan Times

The convoy, which includes some 150 activists and 25 trucks carrying basic humanitarian aid, left Amman on Tuesday in hopes of crossing to the Egyptian port of Nuweibeh on Wednesday.

Loons love their 'tu quoque' arguments don't they.

But hey, let me help you out FD - yes, Egypt is also complicit in the siege of Gaza and shares the guilt of Israel. Happy now?

(Or were you trying to argue that because of the actions of a dictatorial US puppet state we shouldn't criticise Israel for her crimes??)

Oh, and given your jibe at 'lefties' let's compare the Loon hype with reality. Presumably you're arguing that socialists haven't highlighted Egypt's complicity. Hmm, what's this then:

Or how about the Gazan elected ruling party criticising Egypt for the siege:

Fail. Again.

Not a good year for loons so far.
