We, members of the villages and townships in the Gaza enveloping region call on the Israeli
government to stop mucking around with our lives and immediately enter into diplomatic and
political contacts with the Hamas Government!! We are sick and tired of being sitting ducks
who serve political interests.
Rockets from there and bombardments from here do not protect us. We have played around with those games of the
use of force and war for long enough. And both sides have paid, and are continuing to pay, a high price of loss and
suffering. The time has to come to endeavour to reach long-term understandings which will enable civilians on both
sides of the border to live a normal life.
We'd be most appreciative if everyone were to share this message throughout the Internet.
