The New Yorker · The Immigrant Families Jailed in TexasBy Jack Herrera

Israël blokkeert Gaza-hulp ondanks intl. druk

Bullshit van de #NOS, uit nos.nl/liveblog/2564409-buiten:

Minister van Defensie Katz zou willen dat de hulpleveringen worden hervat. Wel vindt hij dat de hulpgoederen door Israëlische of Amerikaanse militairen moeten worden uitgedeeld, omdat het anders de positie van Hamas zou versterken.

Maar de onlangs aangetreden stafchef van het leger, Eyal Zamir, gaf aan dat hij niets ziet in het plan om hulp te distribueren door zijn militairen. Minister Smotrich van Financiën viel daarop naar hem uit en zei dat het leger niet ging over welke missie ze wel of niet deden. Als Zamir dit niet kan realiseren, kon hij vertrekken, volgens Smotrich.

DE NOS VERDRAAIT HET NIEUWS WEER EENS - MET 180 GRADEN.

Het bovenstaande klinkt namelijk of Katz en Smotrich de humanitaire hulp aan Gaza willen hervatten en Zamir niet, maar het tegendeel is het geval.

Bijvoorbeeld uit theyeshivaworld.com/news/israe (nadruk middels hoofdletters aangebracht door mij):

During the meeting, Defense Minister Yisrael Katz said that Israel will be forced to resume the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza within two weeks.

However, he added that, unlike the past, the aid will not reach Hamas as it will be distributed by IDF soldiers or US companies.

Zamir responded by saying that “IDF soldiers will not distribute humanitarian aid AND WE WILL NOT STARVE GAZA.”

Smotrich erupted at Zamir, telling him that he is responsible for carrying out the decision of the political echelon and if he doesn’t, someone else will be brought in to do so.

Precies één week geleden liet Katz er al geen misverstand over bestaan dat hij geen humanitaire hulp naar Gaza wil toelaten, uit israelhayom.com/2025/04/16/isr:

After receiving this criticism, Katz clarified, "As I noted in my statement, Israel's policy is clear, and no humanitarian aid is going to enter Gaza.

Preventing humanitarian aid to Gaza is one of the central pressure tools that prevents Hamas from using this means against the population, in addition to other measures Israel is taking – and it's unfortunate that some are trying to mislead.

No one is going to bring any humanitarian aid into Gaza in the current reality, and there are no preparations to bring in any such aid.

I emphasized that regarding the future, we need to build a mechanism using civilian companies as a tool that won't allow Hamas access to this issue in the future as well."

Vandaag gaat Smotrich nog een stap verder in theyeshivaworld.com/news/israe:

“THIS GOV’T HAS NO RIGHT TO EXIST:” Smotrich Threatens To Bring Down Gov’t If Aid Is Allowed To Reach Hamas
April 23, 2025

De internationale druk op Katz neemt toe (steeds meer westerse regeringsleiders beseffen dat meer dan 2 miljoen hongerdoden, waarvan ca. 1 miljoen kinderen, ook hen persoonlijk zal worden aangerekend).

Maar Katz weet dat als je de distributie van hulpgoederen door ervaren hulporganisaties (de door Israël verboden UNRWA voorop) laat uitvoeren, je niet kunt voorkómen dat dat ook leden en aanhangers van Hamas daarvan zullen profiteren.

Zamir beseft echter dat de IDF (Israeli Destruction Forces) niet de (juiste) mensen en middelen in Gaza heeft om voedsel te distribueren om daarmee massale sterfte te voorkómen. Hij weet dat, in dat geval, zeer binnenkort zéker honderdduizenden kinderen zullen sterven van de honger, dorst en uitputting, en wil niet dat "zijn" IDF daar de schuld van krijgt.

Terwijl voor velen theoretisch mogelijke hulp *nu* al te laat zal blijken, gaat het Zwarte Pieten (als ik dat zo mag noemen) "vrolijk" verder.

Report: "Protesters in cities across the US rallied against Trump’s policies"...

from immigration to the rollback of transgender rights & the call to forcibly transfer Palestinians from Gaza.

Websites issued calls for action, with messages such as “reject fascism” & “defend our democracy.”

The hashtag #50501 stands for 50 protests, 50 states, one day.

smotrich: “soluzione finale” per la cisgiordania (l’annessione è decisa, fattuale, almeno dal 2015)

la “soluzione finale” (parole di Smotrich) per la Cisgiordania inizia con un taglio netto nel territorio:
https://mondoweiss.net/2025/04/israels-escalating-west-bank-assault-is-part-of-a-larger-plan-to-split-the-territory-in-two/

il fasciosionista sopra nominato è, insieme ai suoi compari Katz e Ben Gvir, il personaggio dal vocabolario più vicino al nazismo, nella banda genocida al governo.

(e… n.b.: i foglietti che minacciano di devastazione e morte chi appoggia la Resistenza [cfr. la seconda immagine qui sotto] sono in tutto omologhi alle minacce dei fascisti e dei nazisti a chi nascondeva e proteggeva i Partigiani)

Analysis: "Israel has an agency set up to facilitate the mass transfer of Palestinians. This has absolutely nothing to do with Hamas."

~Mohamad Elmasry

The Israeli security cabinet approved the organizing of “a voluntary transfer for Gaza residents who express interest in moving to third countries... following the vision of President Trump."
