Humanitarian groups call on Israel to end 'weaponisation of aid' in Gaza

TONY SAYS:

So, listen to this horseshit. Over a hundred of these… charities, right? These NGOs, they’re screamin’ bloody murder about Israel, about how they’re blockin’ aid to Gaza. "Weaponizin’ aid," they call it. Like some kinda fuckin’ tactic, you know? These guys are crybabies.

They’re sayin’ Israel’s puttin’ the squeeze on ‘em, tellin’ them they can’t deliver shit unless they jump through hoops, kiss ass, and sing “Hava Nagila” backwards. These new rules, apparently implemented in March, they say it's about makin’ sure the aid gets to the people, not Hamas. Bullshit. Pure, unadulterated bullshit.

It’s like this, see? You gotta understand the game. It’s not about charity, it’s about control. You think these Israelis are just suddenly concerned about starving kids? Fuhgeddaboudit. They're playing a game, a very serious game, and these charities are pawns. They’re using this aid thing as leverage, see? They’re making sure nobody can operate unless they play ball - their ball. It’s all about keeping Hamas in their place. A lotta politics involved here. You follow me?

These NGOs, they're claimin' they can’t get a single truck through since March. Over sixty requests denied in July alone. Sixty! That's more than some guys get in a lifetime. They're talkin’ about hospitals without supplies, kids starvin’, old people dyin’. Sounds rough, huh? It's enough to make a guy wanna go to confession, except I ain't got a confessor who understands this kind of thing.

This Anera guy, Carroll, he’s got seven million dollars worth of supplies sittin’ in Ashdod, just miles away. Seven million! Enough rice for six million meals. Just sittin’ there, rot, while people starve. It's like havin' a freezer full of gabagool and letin' it spoil. It's a goddamn crime, in its own way.

The Israelis, of course, they got their story. They say delays only happen when these charities refuse to play by their rules, that they're worred about Hamas gettin' their hands on the stuff, which could be a valid point. You gotta be careful about who you trust. There’s always somebody trying to squeeze you for an extra piece of the pie, you know. Even me.

Cogat, the Israeli military, they're sayin’ almost twenty organizations are gettin’ aid through, around three hundred trucks a day. The UN, though, they say they need six hundred. A big difference, capisce? It's enough to make a guy wanna smack a few heads together.

This whole thing stinks worse than a dead fish on a hot day. It's a mess, a complicated mess. But the bottom line is simple: somebody's playin' games with people's lives, and it ain't just the Israelis. These charities, they’re in this for their own reasons, too. The whole thing's a fuckin' tapestry of greed, politics, and starvation. It's a goddamn tragedy wrapped in a political intrigue. And that’s a heavy fuckin’ lasagna, let me tell you. You ever tried to digest that? This whole thing...it’s a real situation.
