Palestinian Territory - The massacre carried out by the Israeli army today, Saturday, in the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip is strongly condemned by Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor. Grave concern is also expressed over reports that Israel may have used for military purposes the US pier intended for transporting humanitarian supplies to Gaza.
According to a US official cited by the US website Axios, a US “hostage cell” backed the Israeli attempts to free the four prisoners who were being held in the Gaza Strip. Israeli media reported that an Israeli truck carrying Israeli special forces conducting the operation to retrieve the four detainees departed from the vicinity of the US pier off the coast of the Gaza Strip, under the pretense of carrying humanitarian supplies.
Other sources indicated that the vehicle transporting Israeli forces was a civilian truck disguised to look like it was meant for transporting humanitarian aid, while others indicated that the truck appeared to be carrying civilian displaced persons and their belongings to the area.
According to Israeli Army Radio, “the US hostage cell played a decisive role in freeing the hostages”, with“high-precision American technology that had not been used before in the process of freeing the hostages.” Prior to the incident, video footage of the truck and a Caddy vehicle were released at the time of the breach.
The rules of international humanitarian law state that it is illegal to gain the trust of an adversary through actions that lead them to believe they are entitled to protection or must provide it, with the intent to betray that confidence, resulting in their death or injury.
So THAT’S why the Pro-genocide US government insisted on the pier in spite of it being a nearly useless way to deliver aid compared to already existing methods blocked by the IDF!
It was for committing more war crimes with! 🤦🤬
Yeah. We should’ve known it could/would have a dual purpose.
sigh
The CIA routinely uses USAID as a cover for operations and Osama bin Laden was caught by vaccination workers that were surreptitiously checking everyone’s DNA.
Things like this only endanger civilians and the aid workers themselves.
You can call me a cynical but I saw this coming from the outset.
BBC, 2019: Shakil Afridi: The doctor who helped the CIA find Bin Laden
Dr Afridi was the top medic in Khyber tribal district and as head of health services had overseen a number of US-funded vaccination programmes.
As a government employee, he set up a similar hepatitis B vaccination programme, including in the garrison town of Abbottabad, where it turned out Bin Laden was living right under the noses of the military.
The US intelligence plan was to obtain a blood sample from one of the children living in the Abbottabad compound, so that DNA tests could determine whether or not they were relatives of Bin Laden.
Both aid and duel … so : dual purposes
