If they would stop delivering bombs to Israel, they wouldn’t even have to drop this many meals in the first place, saving literally everyone in the process so much pain and effort.
From the documentary “Killing Gaza” 2018
What the hell are we doing?
We’re sending food as a humanitarian emergency operation to people starving from the seige perpetrated by the side we support with weapons. We’re helping to make them starve while sending “emergency aid” to them as if it’s not us keeping them in need of that aid.
Almost like geopolitics is stupid and complex.
A lot of people just read the headline and think the US are good guys. I noticed the AP had neglected to mention how many thousands of tons of weapons and amunition the US had sent to Israel.
A lotThe majority
Great take. Starving them by feeding them.
If Israel was abiding by international laws and not trying to actively prevent humanitarian aid to reach everyone who needs it, we wouldn’t need those airdrops.
It is another proof that the US has very little influence over Israel and is a sign how powerless they are to change their internal policies.
They have on numerous occasions asked Israel to reduce the civilian casualties and to allow more aid into Palestine, and apparently this isn’t happening.
This is election year pandering. If the US air dropped aid, this means they would have needed authorization from Israel to fly over their space. They could have just demanded Israel step down so the aid thats already on the ground, but being blocked, could get delivered.
There are also reports of the food being expired.
Send them weapons.
Send nukes to Palestine so they can nuke Israel back
Yes.
