Gaza Bakeries Go On Strike Because Hamas Won't Raise Bread Prices


Hahahaha! And the World wants these idiots to have a state? Let's face it, Gaza is a bloody mess and I'm not talking about jihadi blood - it is a financial mess and a testament of how stupid the palis were to elect Hamas to ANYTHING.
Here's a bit from the article:


GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) - Bakers in Gaza refused to bake bread Wednesday, charging that Hamas is keeping prices artificially low to head off unrest among their sanctions-weary people.
Gaza has been facing severe shortages during months of international and Israeli restrictions, and the bakery strike sent people into a frenzy. Hundreds converged on bakeries in the middle of the night to stock up on bread.
Here's a bunch of palis lining up to get a loaf of bread while BILLIONS of dollars have been sent to them from the world in aid. Where is the fucking money, Hamas? Abbas, where is the money??? The fact of the matter is that the world is still giving millions and millions in aid to the palis and that money goes to support terrorist acts against the Israelis and pay off debts to Tehran.

These are a disgusting people who don't know their asses from holes in the ground and this story is a perfect example of why Jordan and Egypt and Lebanon and Syria won't take these misfits in.

Here's the full story at Canadian Business News.


Gaza Bakeries Go on Strike Because Hamas Refuses to Raise Price of Bread


GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) - Bakers in Gaza refused to bake bread Wednesday, charging that Hamas is keeping prices artificially low to head off unrest among their sanctions-weary people.
Gaza has been facing severe shortages during months of international and Israeli restrictions, and the bakery strike sent people into a frenzy. Hundreds converged on bakeries in the middle of the night to stock up on bread.
On Wednesday, bakeries were still selling expensive baguettes and white bread, a luxury for most Gazans. Bakers said their strike is open-ended until Hamas lets them raise prices to cope with the shortage of goods resulting from an Israeli blockade.

Defying the strike, Hamas said it will not budge on bread prices. In recent weeks, Hamas has closed 11 bakeries for trying to raise prices.
A 3-kilogram bag of pita bread, a staple in Gaza meals, sells for $2.30. The owners want to increase it to $2.50. The price in the West Bank is as high as $4.20.
"It is unbearable," said Osama al-Duleimi, a partner in a Gaza City bakery, who said he has lost $15,000 of his own money in the past six months to keep the business afloat. "There is no future this way for us."
