In reply to the discussion: Israel considering limiting humanitarian aid to Gaza after Trump's inauguration [View all]

(5,688 posts)4. Israel is considering limiting humanitarian aid to Gaza
Aren't they already interfering with humanitarian aid to Gaza? Shouldn't this be "Israel excited about the prospect of a lack of consequences for their continued interference with humanitarian aid to Gaza by simply officially limiting it since Trump will let them (not that there have been any real repercussions to date)"?

Israel is in control of Gaza. They have done nothing to stop the gangs taking aid.

No reason not to since "making Palestinians disappear" is their unstated policy.

Shouldn't that be "Israel considering starving the remaining people in Gaza after Trump inauguration"?

Thanks for clarifying. I had no idea that was an Israeli agency and a search on COGAT only came up with the test

This is what they voted for when they refused to back Biden. Muslim Americans chose this path.

Who am I to argue with our Muslim American Palestinian voters? They know what they wanted and they got it.

It was not the people of Gaza that voted. It was their relatives and friends in the USA.

I knew this. I think they're less than 58% these days, but I knew they were Lebanese.

Hope they enjoy the golf courses Trump and Bibi build in Gaza after they steamroll it like a pancake.
