Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh needs to read up on his Biology and Zoology when he warns his minions not to attack the Karni Crossing...
Palestinian Prime Minister and Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh appealed for the first time on Tuesday to militants not to launch attacks against border crossings needed to bring vital humanitarian supplies into the Gaza Strip.Haniyeh's call to exclude border crossings from attacks came nearly a week after Palestinian security forces said they seized an explosives-laden car near the Karni commercial crossing on the border with
Israel after exchanging fire with its occupants."I stress the need to protect the vital interests of the Palestinian people, including the crossings that represent the veins and the lungs of the Palestinian people," Haniyeh said at the beginning of a cabinet meeting.
Veins? Lungs?
As the proud owner of a degree in Biology, I tsk tsk at this ignorant comparison. Veins would be transport within the body, like roads. Lungs would be processing goods for distribution or refinement, like warehouses or factories.
Actually, the crossings are more like a mosquito's proboscis through which the parasitic bug sucks at the lifeblood of its host, vomiting out digestive toxins to corrupt the host's flesh.
Unless you think of the crossings as the cloaca of Gaza, the asshole through which they shit out hordes of dayworkers to the industrial zones.
Or you can think of them as the mouths, sucking and snarling and gnawing, begging to get kicked in the teeth now and then when it bites.
