What do you say about this - Gazan Residents Filing Suit Against Gush Katif Farmers?

Question

If it were not so sad and absurd, one might even think of laughing but residents of Hamas-controlled Gaza are now taking legal action against former Gush Katif farmers, seeking compensatory damages for wrongful dismissal.

According to one Gush Katif refugee, Yossi Schwartz, 45, he was served with papers seeking over NIS 500,000 in compensatory damage from former workers in Gaza, claiming they were unjustifiably dismissed and did not receive fair compensation.

For Schwartz, who has not been working since the Sharon administration expelled him from his home, it is no laughing matter. He has been slowly eating away at his compensatory funds, stating that this lawsuit could be the final nail in the coffin for him and his family.

Other former Gush farmers concur, and they are calling on the Sela Disengagement Agency of the government to step in an assist.

Answer 1

I've come to the conclusion that Israelis and Palestinians deserve each other.  

Both sides play childish games of one-upsmanship like this.......and both sides do everything they can to make sure peace can never be a reality.   Both sides are dictated to by religious and nationalistic  fanatics  who gnash their teeth and scream bloody murder at the prospect of losing one square inch of land, even if it would bring peace.

I truly think neither side really loves their children.  Due to their intransigence and stubbornness, both sides are making sure that their children will inherit war and insecurity for generations to come!!    

Way to go!!!

Answer 2

wow. they whine about occupation, then when we leave, they sue us for going. why do we try to deal rationally with these people?

finish the wall, seal the borders, stop all trade, enough is enough.

Answer 3

Sounds like an American type lawsuit ;) !

Answer 4

How can anyone deal with this kind of logic, this type of logic is what stands in the way of peace.

Answer 5

How can people in Gaza file a lawsuit when nothing is coming in and nothing is going out? and if they are managing to do so, if your employer rips you off, what do you do? Take him to court. What's more absurd is the next generation of Holocaust victims still suing Germany after 65 years, think about it.

Answer 6

It sounds tough but anything is better than enduring all those pogroms and death camps in the U.S. Thank G-d for the Great Safe Haven. Hopefully the ever-fair courts of the occupation will do what is right for their own.
