“Save the Children has said it has had shipments rejected by Israel because they contained sleeping bags with zippers. An Israeli legal center, Geisha, has compiled a list of items that have been reported by organizations to have been rejected, including fishing rods and plastic sheets for tents.”

Scared of every god damn thing. Where have I seen that before? It’s like American pigs claiming a pellet gun was the reason to open fire on a 12 year old. Palestinians are dangerous and evil, even the children and babies.
