    Israel has acknowledged some military strikes on humanitarian workers, including an April attack that killed seven workers with the World Central Kitchen and has denied allegations of others.

    So Israel doesn’t want any aid to Gaza…

    Have killed aid workers multiple times…

    And now aid workers are being pulled because Israel keeps killing them.

    Sounds like the UN is negotiating with a terrorist state.

      Mayhaps the people of Israel aren’t a hive mind and different groups want different things?

      Is it possible that many of want aid entering and work hard for it to flow into Gaza, while others violently oppose it?

        He said israel is a terrorist state. This means the government. And the policies of said government.

        The people are not the government.

          But the people are largely in support of the government, even if they are not in support of the specific members of the current government, although the voted them into power repeatedly.

          Meanwhile the few Israelis that speak out against this are getting attacked by their countrymen. Especially practicing Jews who speak out for Palestine are brutally beaten up. Of course the West does not acknowledge this rampant antisemitism.

        Of course. If only Palestinian society was afforded the same amount of nuance.

      In a world were the US, UK, Germany and others who still stand by the fascists in Israel weren’t mass murdering fascists themselves it would be a reason for them to cut ties and sanction the hell out of Israel.

    Maybe one of the member nations could do something to create that safety instead of throwing up their hands as Gaza starves. Or even just acknowledge that this is exactly what Israel wanted to achieve by killing aid workers.

      No no you see this is antisemitic. Israel is the most moral country with the most moral army. Hamas is always targeting civillians, Israel is just killing them without targeting them. And if they did it were actually Hamas fighters, and if they werent it was their fault. And if it wasnt then it was a mistake and if it wasnt that either then a single soldier stepped out of line and got like two weeks of community service for it, so Israel remains the most moral entity in the world.

    “If you don’t stop committing a humanitarian crisis, we’re going to stop sending humanitarian aid!”

    What?

    Then send in armed forces to do it instead. Why can we send aid workers but not soldiers?

      Because most of the military powers of the world are aligned with Israel and actively enabling and supporting this genocide.

      It would all be over tomorrow if the US, UK, Germany and other fascist friends would stop sending any weapons, threaten sanctions and if necessary impose a no fly zone over Gaza. Instead Israel gets more F16s to be able to bomb even faster.

          Stop spreading propaganda lies. Netanyahu said he will not stop until “Hamas is destroyed” aka the genocide is finished.

            I don’t care what Netanyahu says.

            If the hostages were all released the international pressure from every country INCLUDING Israel’s biggest supporters would be massive.

            The reason they are allowed to keep buying weapons is BECAUSE the hostages are not released.

            You want the sanctions to start and the war to end then the hostages must be released

              Ahh yeah? Like the international pressure against the ethnic cleansing and annexation of the Westbank before October 7? Like the international pressure after the murder of Shireen Abu Akleh? Like the international pressure when Israeli soldiers were openly praising their counts of murdered children during the peaceful march of return protests?

              You think the countries that were fine with all of this and continued to be fine with the destruction of all of Gaza, the deliberate starvation and displacement of two million people and the genocidial murder of over 40.000 of which more than 17.000 are children would somehow start having a problem with that, when Israel got back the remaining 100 hostages?

              You know this is bullshit and you are lying in order to justify more of the things described by distracting from them with bullshit tropes.

                Unsurprisingly, that’s when your interlocutor disappears from the conversation and you’re not going to get a response, obviously.

          Define “all”. Because the status quo ante before October 7th was already a fucking crime.

          Really the Israeli occupation of Palestine which long predates Oct 7th would be over if the hostages were released?

    Yeah I’m sure that’ll… help? Israel is the one dropping airstrikes on refugee camps, what makes anyone think they actually want any aid in Gaza at all?
