    Giving terrorists the ability to control the population is enabling terrorism.

    And leaving a people that has nowhere to go without food, medicine and water, what would that be? I’m asking genuinely, even if Hamas completely controls the distribution of aids within Gaza in order to maintain control, do you really believe that withdrawing these aids (and therefore causing death and starvation) would be at all justifiable?

      That would be the problem Hamas wants. I absolutely believe this is an absolute requirement in order to dismantle Hamas.

      The reality of this tragic situation is that the vast majority of deaths in this conflict are the direct result of the actions of the power group running the strip. Yes people will die in order to free Palestinians from the grips of Hamas. If only the UN had heeded the past decade of calls to investigate UNRWA this would have been avoided. The blame doesn’t fall on those who are pulling funding, it belongs to UNRWA and Hamas.

      There is no answer here and that’s by design. You cannot continue with the current conditions, that must be obvious to everyone after the past few months.

        Its very noble of you to stand up for starving millions of people to achieve your desired political outcome, bravo.
