    Turns out that the people that turned off food water and power in order to collectively punishing an ethnic population is not very interested in helping the people that they are punishing.

    Pretty sure Israel’s plan is not to allow aid to be brought to the people, but to export the remaining people to the aid.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Cairo says the Rafah crossing, a potentially vital opening for desperately-needed supplies into the Israeli-besieged Palestinian enclave, is not officially closed but is inoperable due to Israeli air strikes on the Gaza side.

    As Israel’s bombardment and siege of Gaza has intensified, the territory’s 2.3 million residents have been left without power, pushing health and water services to the brink of collapse, with fuel for hospital generators running low.

    “There is an urgent need to alleviate the suffering of Palestinian civilians in Gaza,” Egypt’s Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry told reporters, adding that talks with Israel had not been fruitful.

    Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians have been displaced within Gaza, with some taking cars and suitcases south towards the Rafah crossing but others heading back north after failing to find refuge.

    Like others, Egypt has spoken out against any mass exodus of Gaza residents, reflecting deep Arab fears that the latest war could spark a new wave of permanent displacement for Palestinians from lands where they have sought to build a state.

    Early on Monday, two Egyptian security sources had told Reuters a temporary ceasefire in southern Gaza to last several hours had been agreed to facilitate aid and evacuations at Rafah.

    Man if only there was some way to protect the corridor by air.

    You know like engaging in high stakes geopolitics and military showdowns.

    Because Egypt definitely cares about the Palestinians and Gaza.

            Still not the same thing. These are people suspected of immediate planning or in the process of conducting terror attacks. They are an immediate danger to Israeli citizens and might hold information that can stop such an attack. And again they are not children, mothers, babies, they do have red cross visits, their family know exactly where they are and how they are. They are going to get a fair trial and a lawyer. They are mot hundreds.

            You should feel bad for promoting a terror organization like Hamas that just 7 days ago slaughtered 1200 Israeli people including civilians, children, babies, elderly, foreigner tourists and more.

        Did you read the article? It makes claims about “Cairo” and “Egypt” saying something, never actually quoting any entity from the Egyptian government on the reason the pass is not operational. The foreign minister says merely that there is “an urgent need”, whatever the hell that means. The writers very conveniently leave out any reliable quotations for the single most contentious part of the entire piece. If anybody credible actually believed that Israel bombed this crossing, the authors would have no trouble finding a quote saying so.

            Ah yes, 90 second long video by Al Jazeera (known for posting literal Holocaust denial on their social media) with sources as reputable as… videos from random Facebook and TikTok pages…

            Christ the state of source evaluation these days.

            The closest I can find from a source without a history of public Holocaust denial is that essentially Egypt closed it after nearby strikes, and is refusing to open it until there are no strikes even somewhat nearby. A pretty far cry from the “made inoperable” nonsense in this dumpster fire of an article
