Interesting you would think that. And, of course, the usual suspects who thanked your comment.
Seems the UN has no idea what they are either. Since they don’t count it as aid. It’s not a ton of supplies, but the UN doesn’t include it in their totals.
Obviously Israel is in the right here. Hamas is a bunch of Islamist thugs who have ideologically captured most Palestinians. You do not want Hamas to win this fight or if you do, you’re an idiot.
I am not sure how many people are familiar with Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib. He is a Palestinian American involved in humanitarian endeavors in Gaza and is a regular guest on a lot of podcasts. He is originally from Gaza City and lost 32 family members since the war began. His perspective seems to be pretty grounded and critical of both Israel and Hamas, and as an extension, the general Palestinian approach.
I watched a recent podcast where he basically said that the war can't end until Hamas is gone. There was an expectation with some factions in Gaza to work with Israel in a post-Hamas Gaza, but that can't happen while Hamas is still around. He said that the Jewish hostages didn't matter much because they always have Palestinians as hostages. Basically a ####ty situation no matter what for Palestinians. It would be nice to see the same urgency with the pro-Palestinian group to protect them from Hamas.

Nobody is cheering for Hamas here. Some are doing their darnedest to hide their support for genocide though.
Good ol' Doctor, avoid direct, repeated questions because he has zero ability to defend his position beyond "hey, did you want this one video with this one guy? Please? It's all I got!"
Because "thanking" a post is seen as weak or hiding or something, I guess I'll just repeat it in my words.
If you don't want people to think you are smooth brained, don't come across as smooth brained.
OK, well you can take it up with all the experts and professionals who do this for a living and are calling it a genocide. Everyone is free to hold irrational positions. Just good ot know you aren't one of them who has a position of power.

Oh I completely disagree with these "experts." I think they are a bunch of Jew-hating morons who want to see Israel humiliated. It's all cherry-picked anyway to fit the progressive world-view that Israel = bad colonial oppressor and jihadists = misunderstood oppressed poor people.
There are plenty of "experts and professionals (lol)" who support Israel, but you obviously choose to ignore them.

Ooops, sorry that last one was, in fact, an actual monster. Interesting to note even monsters agree. WTF does that make you?
Pro tip, you can just google your inane questions instead of having to take public smackdowns here.
So all these people and organizations are Jew-hating morons spewing bull####? Here's some self hating Jews for you, I guess.

A pair of leading Israeli human rights groups has accused Israel of “committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza,” becoming the first such organizations to make the claim.
On my dad's side, Danish, lived in Copenhagen during the war. Farfar (Father's father) ran a large construction company there and did some work for the resistance - even hid a Jewish child on the night the Danes evacuated their Jewish population to Sweden. After the war, he and his family moved to Canada where he set up another large company. Things were hard at first, but the Jewish community found out there was a Dane doing construction and started giving him business as a thank you for all the Danes did during the war.
Farmor (Father's Mother) was a stay at home mom, loved to dress up, and made the best rye bread I will ever have. She pickled everything.
On my mom's side, big farming family, but my grandpa was a steam engineer at a bible college in a small Albertan town. His wife was also a stay-at-home mom, and after some hip surgery became an opioid addict. They estranged themselves from my parents early on in my life and I didn't really know them

Nice edit, certainly you're walking back from a commitment with that. Good job
