U.S. Is Helping Israel To Commit And Hide War Crimes
(Moon Over Alabama) Some headlines are just weird:
US has sent Israel data on aid group locations to try to prevent strikes - Politico
Anyone who has over the years watched the regular massacres committed by the Israeli Occupation Forces will immediately understand that the headline really means this:
U.S. is providing Israel targeting data for bombing aid groups in Palestine - Real Politico Headline Meaning
And indeed:
The Biden administration has been providing Israel with the location of humanitarian groups in Gaza for weeks to prevent strikes against their facilities. But Israel has continued to hit such sites.
The information included GPS coordinates of a number of medical facilities and information on movements of aid groups in Gaza to the Israeli government for at least a month, according to three people familiar with the communications. All were granted anonymity because they feared speaking publicly would make it more difficult for aid groups to operate in Gaza.
Still, Israel has launched operations against Hamas in or near aid sites, including hospitals, leading to the destruction of buildings and the blocking of fuel and other critical supplies.
This isn't a war against Hamas, but a war against the people of Palestine. The U.S. government knows that it is complicit in the day by day war crimes perpetrated by the IOF. Its defensive instinct is do try its best to hide all evidence that such crimes were committed.
Biden admin officials see proof their strategy is working in hostage deal - Politico
There was no sense that the pause would turn into a lengthier cease-fire, a senior administration official said. And there was some concern in the administration about an unintended consequence of the pause: that it would allow journalists broader access to Gaza and the opportunity to further illuminate the devastation there and turn public opinion on Israel.
"Don't let anyone know that we are doing this!"
A note on the hostage deal:
In the hours before any onset of temporary truces or longer lasting ceasefires Israel will always increase its level of bombing and slaughter.
Today will likely be the worst day the people in Gaza have ever experienced.
