      People are starving including Hamas. The same members of Hamas with hostages who need to be fed. But you keep on pretending that's some gotcha that lets you ignore the deliberate starvation of innocent babies and children.

      It is convenient NOT to say. He is there ONLY for the public to feel sorry for the population, not to explain and remind the population WHY the bombings are happening. And he knows the public has a short-term memory….
      Plus Senwar ( whatever it is spelled) is safe in the tunnels with his civilian family and friends. For the rest of the civilians, it doesn’t matter for Sinwar……

    Well, If I calculated correct. That 200 truck is about 2-2.5 kg/person
    1 container (1 Truck) have 33 m^3 or 33,000,000 cm^3
    33,000,000 cm^3 x 200 truck = 6,600,000,000 cm^3 divide with 3,000,000 person
    6,600,000,000 cm^3 / 3,000,000 person = 2,200 cm^3 / person in volume
    ... or about 2-2.5 liter/person/day
    funfact : Instant white rice 1 portion (for 1 meal) is 1/2 cup in volume

      There's been 36,000 meals dropped by the US alone. More than 20 airdrops of aid into Gaza have taken place over the past few weeks in co-ordination with the Israeli military, with France, the United Arab Emirates and Egypt conducting them alongside the US and Jordan. Five people died when a parachute didn't deploy, the other drops haven't been enough - and some people leave with plenty while many leave with nothing.

    Supplying aid only encourages the militants as it frees up tax money for violence. The population is also expanding at an unnaturally high rate.
    Aid makes sense following a natural calamity, not decades of economic underdevelopment, militancy and exploding population.

    The UN through their involvement with HAMAS started this latest terrible conflict by committing a war crime when they attacked Israeli civilians. This man should take responsibility for the suffering being inflicted on the Palestinians. I also notice that this man and the UN say nothing about the Israeli hostages. The UN has in my view lost its way.

    • @cupguin
      @cupguin Місяць тому +2

      Why are you conflating the two? Israel claimed UNRWA had a dozen staff out of thousands who were Hamas. UNWRA fired every surviving staff member Israel claimed was Hamas. Israel refused to provide any evidence for their claims to its allies but expected the largest aid group on the ground to be cut off from international funding. And apparently it worked on you.
      Also, why should Hamas surrender when Israel has made no promises about what happens next? It's like all these calls to release hostages, the Israeli government's position is they won't stop when the hostages are released. There's no guarantee aid will be allowed in, ground offences will be stopped, hospitals won't be bombed or that civilians will be allowed to return to where they previously lived. Just surrender and then what?

    One video I watched said that the Israeli soldiers who inspect the trucks will look for any picky-un reason not to let a truck go through and will send it to the back of the line where it might have to wait so long some of the food is ruined. (they need less perishable things and more nutritional things with less weight). Mostt of the people are living in tents but if the soldiers find a tent pole that looks too dangerous to them, instead of taking the tents off or just the poles, they will send the truck back to the end of the line and all that time inspecting goes to waste!!!! They have scanners, they do not need to search for what they claim is dangerous, in the way that they did before scanners!!!

It's easy to ignore the realities of what the UK's policies has led to if you don't have to look at it and the coverage is this one sided. It's going to be awkward if Netanyahu's government follows through on what it's been saying in public and the UK media has to finally cover the situation as it rather than how they wanted it to be.
