People are going to start dying in droves. May be happening already, as GHF has only fed 10-15% of the population so far. It also limits aid to food - so no water, fuel, medicine. Without clean water and fuel the dehydrated and dry food is useless.
GHF is the brainchild of Israelis tied to Netanyahu's office. Its humanitarian chief - hired for the veneer of legitimacy, albeit temporary - quit when he realized the whole thing was a sham and a scam. Now it's run by an Evangelical Minister and Trump advisor. Its US consulting agency has now quit too, after firing two senior employees engaged in unauthorized and unsavoury activities its own employees described as aiding forced displacement and ethnic cleansing.
The "Hamas steals aid - denied by aid agencies on the ground - was used to sideline the UN and established agencies. Now this "Hamas is threatening" allegation also plays into some nefarious agenda. While as we have seen the only threat to Palestinian aid-seekers is the trigger-happy IDF whose soldiers feel "threatened" by unarmed starving people and shoot "at" or "towards" them - but of course responsibility for the slaughter is denied and projected. So the next time the IDF gets scared or trigger-happy - and they know it will happen - there is a ready-made excuse.
It's almost as if everything is being done to ensure maximum suffering and continuation of the starvation.
Then, when it can no longer be denied, there will be an "urgent" appeal to countries of the world - especially neighbouring Egypt - to be "humanitarian" and take in the starving Palestinians.
Truly, jaw-droppingly inhumane. The only way to stop this is through immediate sanctions and other forms of coercion to get the aid in through the real humanitarians.
