Hamas, Not Israel, Has Caused Gaza Suffering

 The American Spectator

"In truth, even if international aid floods into Gaza, Hamas will take every step necessary to ensure that Gazans suffer." Nazi enough for you, students?
 

"Recently, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) redoubled its historic vendetta against the state of Israel and opened a hearing into the Israeli blockade of humanitarian aid into Gaza.

""At the hearing, the United Nations (UN) leapt to condemn Israel for its “ban on humanitarian aid” and declared that the blockade of aid into Gaza has induced a litany of “devastating humanitarian consequences in the Gaza Strip.”

"In fact, various politicians and political actors have claimed that the state of Israel seeks to starve the people of Gaza.

"However, despite the baseless accusations that have recently been levied against the state of Israel by the UN and other Palestinian ‘allies,’ it is clear that Israel is not at all attempting to starve the people of Gaza or engineer any famine in Palestine.

"More importantly, it is readily apparent that any politician, political actor, or organization that earnestly desires to end starvation in Palestine and allocate the Palestinian people with any basic human rights must endeavor to exile Hamas from Gaza, not abolish the Jewish state.

"Firstly, the state of Israel has never displayed a desire to starve or exterminate the Palestinian people in any capacity. Instead, throughout the modern era, Israeli organizations have constantly provided humanitarian aid and medical services to Palestine, in an effort to improve the “life chances” of the Palestinian people, despite the brutal violence, terror, and hatred that Palestinian terrorist organizations enthusiastically cultivate against the state of Israel.

"For example, since the most recent outbreak of the Israel-Palestine conflict on October 7th, the state of Israel has helped to facilitate the transfer of over one million tons of humanitarian aid and 800 000 tones of food into Gaza and the Palestinian territories. Furthermore, over the past decade, “Food and supplies [have been] shipped from Israel to Gaza six days a week.” and “Millions of dollars worth of international food aid [has] continually [flowed] through the Israeli humanitarian apparatus, ensuring that there is no food shortage in Gaza.

In truth, the state of Israel has only recently been forced to restrict the flow of aid into Gaza, due to the fact that Hamas has attempted to bargain with the lives of innocent people and has refused to release the final 59 hostages that it captured during its brutal attack against the state of Israel on Oct. the 7th. Sadly, Hamas has previously tortured and murdered many of its hostages, such as the Bibas children, and, therefore, Israel has been forced to explore every option to save the lives of the remaining hostages." . . .
