Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is fed up with the nonsense and lies about “mass starvation” in Gaza, and the world media’s adamant refusal to consider the evidence that Hamas has been releasing photographs of children with pre-existing congenital illnesses, such as cerebral palsy, and presenting them as “starving” and “close to death.” He also wanted to make clear just how much aid has been distributed to the Gazans by the Israel-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. To date, two million meals have been served, but you almost never see this figure reported in the media.
Christine Douglass-Williams posted Netanyahu’s riposte here. A key excerpt:
Contrary to false claims, this is the best way to end the war, and the best way to end it speedily.
We will do so by first enabling the civilian population to safely leave the combat areas to designated safe zones. In these safe zones they will be given ample food, water and medical care, as we have done before. And again, contrary to false claims, our policy throughout the war has been to prevent a humanitarian crisis, while Hamas’s policy has been to create it.
Since the beginning of the war, Israel has let in close to 2 million tons of aid! I know of no other army that has enabled such aid to go to the civilian population in enemy territory.
Now, if we had a starvation policy, no one in Gaza would have survived after two years of war. But our policy has been the exact opposite. We’ve let in, as I said, almost 2 million tons of aid and sent millions of text messages, millions of phone calls, to Gazans to get out of harm’s way.
For weeks, hundreds of trucks loaded with aid have been brought into Gaza, but many of them have been looted by Hamas and what remains simply stays on the trucks, that cannot safely travel further into Gaza. They sit there, mute testimony to Hamas’ endless depredations. Despite this, the GHF has nonetheless managed to get in enough aid to supply more than one hundred million meals. Why isn’t this being reported? Prime Minister Netanyahu is not the only one who wants to know.
The purpose of this news conference is to puncture the lies and spread the truth. But that distortion has been propelled around the earth, almost the way that the Jewish people, who are maligned in the Middle Ages. Every massacre of the Jewish people was preceded by massive vilification. We were “spreading” – we were said to be “spreading vermin” to Christian society, we were said to be “poisoning the wells”, we were said to “slaughter Christian children for their blood”. And as these lies spread around the globe, they were followed by horrific, horrific massacres, pogroms, displacements, finally culminating in the worst massacre of them all – the Holocaust.
Mentioning the “blood libel” may at first be startling, but the more one thinks about the incredible worldwide campaign of vilification of the Jewish state and of Jews, the more fitting it seems.
Netanyahu also clearly laid out the five objectives of the campaign in Gaza:
First, to destroy Hamas as a military force.
Second, to obtain the release of all the hostages.
Third, to make sure that Gaza remains demilitarized.
Fourth, to remove all Israeli troops from Gaza.
Fifth,to turn the running of Gaza over to willing Arab governments.
Israel has no desire to remain in Gaza. It only wants to have its hostages back and to ensure that Hamas will never be able to threaten Israelis again. Who could object to this?
Practically the whole world, it seems. So malevolent are the charges brought against the IDF of “ethnic cleansing” and ”genocide,” so prevalent the herd mentality that was on display at the UN Security Council on August 10, another kangaroo court with Israel perennially in the dock, that Israel has to keep sweeping back the monstrous tide of error, and hope that some of the truth-telling from its defiant, and eloquent, prime minister and other Israeli officials will break through the carapace of lies.
