Palestinians starve as Israel continues full ban on humanitarian aid
On Wednesday, the UN aid coordination office, OCHA, said in its latest update that Israel’s ban on entry of aid has continued for nearly a month and that no aid entered the enclave throughout this period. All requests by humanitarian agencies to coordinate access with Israeli authorities have been denied.
Helles recalled when the blockade was imposed. The shops were empty within hours, and what was left was too expensive, she said. Even the charity distributions, which once offered a variety of meals, have dwindled, now providing only small servings of rice at the time of Iftar.
After days of eating little more than rice, Huda couldn’t sleep at night, suffering from severe stomach pain and colic. She was diagnosed with a stomach infection two weeks ago.
Unconscionable. What Hamas did was inexcusable, but Hamas doesn't treat Palestinians any better than they do Jews as a matter of public record. I get that Hamas have exploited just about any effort to help the average Palestinian ever attempted, but that should not be an argument against helping what amounts to more victims of Hamas.
This has nothing to do with "Jews". You differentiate Hama's and Palestinians. Why not the other way. Most Jews aren't even in Israel. Many in Israel don't support it even. I'm all for calling out Israel.
Yeah, that's a fair point. Substitute with 'citizens of Israel' then.
What Hamas did is very excusable.

They killed and kidnapped civilians which isn’t excusable. It would have been excusable to attack the military, not civilians.
Armed struggle != war crimes. One does not justify the other. The October attacks were like 5% achieving military objectives, the rest mindless slaughter, to the point where one can legitimately question whether the military objectives were not completely incidental. Hamas could have bee-lined for as many IDF outposts as they could, they didn't, they shot up Hippie Kibbutzim of all places. (Which is also why Netanjahu and triply so the Kahanites don't care about the hostages: They're by and large lefties).
Same, of course, goes for the IDF and what they're currently doing. If both sides kept to not even self-defence but only military objectives there might actually be peace in sight.
So claims Israel, which has published more lies than truths throughout this genocide.
In the fight against Israel. Let's not forget that they're still a brutal authoritarian regime that must go immediately after someone does something about Israel.
