Lets look at who controls the borders, who controls the flow of goods and humanitarian aid, who controls everything that goes in and out of Gaza. It is Israel.
What we saw in the last month, one month alone, child acute malnutrition increased by over 80 percent. So they are using childrens lives and the death of thousands in this negotiation process.

Turkey Sends Military Forces to Somalia to Aid Battle Against al-Shabab
Israel hat einen ganz bestimmten Fehler gemacht
"Nachdem man bereits eine erste Darstellung des Vorfalls zurckziehen musste, nennt Israels Militr die Ttung von 15 palstinensischen Rettungskrften nun ein operatives Missverstndnis. Soldat*innen seien von einer realen Bedrohung durch feindliche Krfte ausgegangen. Deutsche Medien titeln dazu, Israel rume Fehler ein.
Laut Recherchen der Washington Post und der New York Times wurden die in Uniformen des Roten Halbmonds oder des Zivilschutzes gefundenen Opfer hauptschlich durch gezielte und mehrfache Treffer auf lebenswichtige Bereiche des Krpers gettet. Ihre Leichen zeigten Anzeichen prziser Zielerfassung.
Der einzige Fehler, den Israels Militr also gemacht hat, ist, das Video der Bodycam eines Opfers, welches das eigene Narrativ des barbarischen Vorfalls entkrftete, nicht verschwinden zu lassen. Einen Fehler macht auch die deutsche Presse, wenn sie Israels Lgen bagatellisiert und dessen Regierung mit einem weiteren Kriegsverbrechen davonkommen lsst...."
