IDF forces together with police officers on Sunday. prevented demonstrators from blocking the Kerem Shalom Crossing and preventing the entry of aid trucks into the Gaza Strip

Demonstrators, including families of hostages, gathered at the Kerem Shalom Crossing after they blocked it last week, preventing the entry of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip.

When soldiers and officers blocked the protesters, the latter attempted to get around the roadblocks to reach the crossing.

While the demonstrators were being held off by the officers, several aid trucks managed to enter the Gaza Strip. The demonstrators eventually reached the crossing and blocked it.

The Tzav 9 movement, which organizes the demonstrations, stated that it "congratulates the decision to block, but instead of implementing it against the families of the hostages and soldiers, it should be implemented against the murderous Hamas terror organization which receives oxygen to continue fighting us from these trucks.

"Our struggle will continue with full determination, without any violence against our dear security forces. No aid will pass until the last of the hostages return."

Hamas just steals the aid anyway.

Good for them.

This is what Americans should be doing at our southern borders. Form up in columns and be our own fence. Texas law doesn’t prohibit us from carrying weapons nor defending ourselves.

The protesters are 100% right. I don’t remember us sending an aid to the “civilians” of Nazi Germany.

Where in the Bible does it instruct us to feed and care for our enemies at the same time that they are trying to kill us?

Truly sorry for the hostages even if they’re still alive but Hamas is killing many more Israelis. Stop all aid and go scorched earth on the monsters. Come on, it is a tiny little strip of land the size of Las Vegas but nooo, somehow for some reason, we’re going to have a world war because of it.

Good. Let those savages starve in the dark.

After the war, there was the Berlin Air Lift, in response to the USSR’s attempt to starve Berlin’s populace to death for revenge. During the war, it’s misplaced compassion, because Hamas just steals it.

But there is the example of El Cid, who conquered a city in Islamic Spain by catapulting bread over the walls, thereby incentivizing the inhabitants to turn on their ruler. Giving them humanitarian aid that Hamas steals is a double-edged swords. Rather than their protectors, they can then be seen as their tormentors, for bringing Israeli firepower on their homes, and at the same time stealing from them and leaving them to starve.

I believe one Hamas police station was burnt to the ground by an angry family whose father was murdered while trying to secure some provisions for them. PLM, you might call it. At some point, they’re liable to turn on Hamas, just as the inhabitants of that Moorish Spanish city turned on their ruler, because it became worth their while.
