Blinken says Israel has ‘no choice’ but to cooperate with UN in Gaza

Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Israel must cooperate with the United Nations in Gaza to get aid to civilians as Israel enters its fourth month of war with militant group Hamas.

MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell pressed Blinken on why there is still a lack of humanitarian aid entering Gaza. Blinken said it’s necessary for Israel to work with the U.N. to get the much-needed aid into Gaza, where 90 percent of the population is eating less than one meal a day.

“It is imperative that Israel work with the United Nations. It’s imperative that this assistance get in, that more of it get in, and that once it gets in, it gets effectively to the people who need it. The United Nations are the only game in town,” Blinken told Mitchell in the interview.

He praised the U.N. for getting aid “to people who need it,” adding that the organization has done “extraordinary things.”

“get UN aid to Gaza” is code language for re-arming Hamas, as that was how Hamas got armed in the first place.

Only Israel has to listen to the Islamo Nazi’s in the UN and bow to their demands. Nothing about the Arabs paying for their crimes, murder and pillaging, kidnapping and releasing the hostages. Israel should quit the UN and maybe tell the US that it is a soverign country and doesn’t need advice from pedo Joe and his clown circus

“Blinken says Israel has ‘no choice’ but to cooperate with UN in Gaza”

“Who died and made Blinkered God?”

The little nimrod says they must, they must. Okay, tell me why as you didn’t say other than they must. They are at war with the ruling faction of Gaza. We didn’t send aid to Germany or Japan. He needs to tell me the reason so he has an argument. Otherwise, this article is worth less than the price of the ink used. (Him too)

What happens if someone in Israel says that the obverse of Blinken’s statement is also true? “The UN must cooperate with Israel”

Blinken is trash like so many federal punks Biden has.

Brandon is trash like so many federal punks Blinken, Nuland, Barry, Valjar & Monaco have.
