GAZA, April 11 (Xinhua) -- Israeli authorities decided to deport a West Bank woman to Gaza Strip after she ended her prison sentence, a Palestinian activist said on Saturday.

According to Human rights groups in Gaza, Israel has deported around 30 West Bankers to Gaza since the beginning of the 2nd Intifada or Uprising erupted against Israel in the Palestinian territories in late September 2000.

"Israel allegedly says the reason to deport Palestinians to Gaza is to prevent them from practicing any activities in their hometowns. This kind of punishment is illegal and contradicts with international laws," said Abu Shamallah.

Is Gaza, with the gaza wall, a prison?

After being in prison you get to go to another bigger prison?

People are eating grass in Gaza and are so hungry, to send a woman there while her family is in the west bank will surely conclude in destitution.

How is this even happening?

They should not be allowed to do this and this is barely making any news either

There is a huge double standard when it comes to Israel and what scrutiny is held against them in accordance with international law.

Basically, they get away with more than we do here in the U.S.

Which is saying something.

And don't forget, if you question it, you're an anti-semite.

That's a difficult debate
Most of what Israel does is either done with supplies or finances from the U.S.

Even exporting white phosphorus from U.S. to israel
