Israel confiscated seven oxygen machines en route to hospitals in the West Bank and Gaza based on the claim that there was a chance the generators attached to the machines would not be used for medical purposes, Palestinian news agency Ma'an reported Saturday.

According to Ma'an, the Ramallah-based health ministry said that the generators, which were donated to the Palestinian Authority by a Norwegian development agency, were seized by Israeli officials despite the fact that only one machine was bound for Gaza.
The generators "came under the category of possible use for non-medical purposes" if they were delivered to southern Gaza, the Palestinian health ministry said in a statement, adding that the six other machines were bound for government hospitals in the northern Gaza, inducing the European Hospital in Gaza City, the Rafdieyah hospital in Nablus, and other facilities in Ramallah and Hebron.
The Ministry of Health appealed to the Norwegian Development Agency, which supplied the machines, and asked that they intervene and demand the release of the equipment at the soonest possible date, Ma'an reported.
"Any delay in obtaining the medical equipment will negatively affect the health of patients," the statement concluded.[/quote]

I guess some of those Palestinians will be left breathless.
Fucking Israel :argh:
The compressed air canisters could be combined and used as explosives. This is just as valid as tree's being pulled out of the ground at the G20 summit.

That's alright, it probably would have been long winded anyway.
israel to block out the sun in gaza because they can use mirrors + sunlight to build a giant death ray!!
Oxygen denied to the airabs?
This just in, hair banned in Israel as it can be weaved together and used as garrote wire.
So that hole wasn't deep enough?
Fucking bastards.
Oh no.

Erhm that logical thinking.... thats banned in Israel (and Australia).
I'd like to see how the Israel apologists spin this one.

Maybe if machines use cannisters, the the cannisters can be made into missiles. Although most of those are made out of plastic carbonate I think.
watch the filth on this forum try to defend this
So it never occured to anyone that the Oxygen it generates could be used as an explosive?

they should ban all food because food makes people shit and shit can biodegrade and create methane which can be used as an explosive!!
Well, oxygen is an accelerant, and it can be kept in a solid oxide to use as an oxidizer for explosives. Yeah, it is a dick move, albeit not without good reason.

If they are dedicated enough to ferment their own shit then good for them but they certainly won't be supplying them with chemical fertilizer or anything which is obvioulsy weapons capable.
If BurnEmDown was here he'd be saying that the Palestinians where probably using the air to build some sort of doomsday bomb to kill all of the peace loving Israelis who never do anything wrong :rolleyes:

everything else israel has been banning they'd have to be pretty dedicated to use as a deadly weapon

BurnEmDown:
the oyxgen could be used to build bombs.
the wall that is around the palestinians prevents all evil.
hamas killing civilians are monsters while IDF killing civilians are inevitable casualties of war.
it's not wrong because israel never signed the thing that says that it's wrong.

No, actually oxygen is one of the simplest explosives around. All you need is an above average density and an ignition source. Most of the hollywood firey explosions are done with oxygyen.

Fair point, it is a little paranoid. I think it's a little more justified than most other things because their terrorist government certainly isn't going to consider the peoples medical needs and probably just confiscate them. It's a much simpler connection than banning concrete because they might build tunnels.
Looks like the fan in the picture can be used as a weapon. Better confiscate it!
they should ban people because their internal organs can be projectiles!!
[QUOTE=Cloak Raider;22937253]well that's that

Think of Uranium. Yellow cake is an ordinary rock with a few radioactive properties, it is in the ground in a lot of countries. No point banning and confiscating the yellowcake because it's pretty useless as is. The right thing to ban is the enrichment of it to turn it into something useful.
