Under American pressure, Israel has pledged to deliver large quantities of humanitarian aid into the war-ravaged Gaza Strip. But at the same time, the U.S. and Israel have allowed tax-deductible donations to far-right groups that have blocked that aid from being delivered.
Three groups that have prevented humanitarian aid from reaching Gaza — including one accused of looting or destroying supplies — have raised more than $200,000 from donors in the U.S. and Israel, The Associated Press and the Israeli investigative site Shomrim have found in an examination of crowdfunding websites and other public records.
Incentivizing these donations by making them tax-deductible runs counter to America’s and Israel’s stated commitments to allow unlimited food, water and medicine into Gaza, say groups working to get more aid into the territory. Donations have continued even after the U.S. imposed sanctions against one of these groups.
By not cracking down on these groups, Israel is showing a “lack of coherence” in its Gaza aid policy, said Tania Hary, executive director of Gisha, an Israeli nonprofit that has long called on Israel to improve conditions in the territory.
No, they are not. They self identify as martyrs. They are a part of, or at least support the cause. Hamas fills a school with weapons and ammo. They keep sending their children to it but say an extra prayer before and after they leave and return.
If only it was ‘just a few thousand Hamas terrorists’…
That’s just not true. Over half of the population wasn’t even ALIVE the last time there was an alternative to vote for, much less old enough to vote.
More IDF Hasbara with no root in reality
WTF are you blathering about??
It is. Against a military with vastly superior technology and more soldiers than there are people in Gaza and the West Bank combined.
It’s not a war. It’s a genocide during which the occupation forces of the fascist apartheid regime is committing crimes against humanity on a daily basis.
Yes, it is. Every newsclip I’ve seen the ‘civilians’ use the word martyr in their statement. Face it. They aren’t people in the Trade Centre just living their lives. They tacitly or overtly support the cause and so are not mere innocent bystanders. As for age? Indoctrination starts at birth and you know it so knock it off with the disingenuous arguments.
No. Stop lying, please.
Sounds like you need better sources.
That’s a sinister lie that the war criminals in the Knesset are using to justify slaughtering innocents, including children.
It’s no different than American bigots saying all Muslims and Arabs are terrorists.
So what you’re saying is that it’s completely fine to slaughter all the children? You’re totally fine with the mass slaughter of children?
lol I can’t even. Doubling down on the disingenuous arguments. Toodles dude. Reality is Gaza is going to be converted to a parking lot if people like you continue to refuse facing facts and conceding this isn’t a winnable fight. Keep on clutching your pearls and saying ‘no u’ until the martyr supply is completely exhausted. Some consolation ‘but we were right’ will be at that point eh?
Whatever you say, cheerleader of countless atrocities. Have the day you deserve.
