Israeli security forces delivered 300 liters of diesel fuel to Shifa Hospital in Gaza early Sunday morning and later received intelligence indicating that Hamas had intercepted the delivery, according to a Sunday night IDF statement.

    And how exactly do you know that? And yes as an empathetic human being I would definitely try to help and fail rather than not trying. At least I would know that I have tried.

    And just to remind you, the propaganda is not only on one of the sides, but both. And accepting everything IDF is saying as true is a very one-sided way to look at this conflict!

      People trying to help and making the situation worse does not help, at all. Putting soothing your own feelings above the pragmatic requirements to solve the situation does not help

      This is why politicians are universally hated, but still required

        Let them all die then. Right? They are anyway on the wrong side of the fence!

          That’s not what I said, but you know that already

              Who would have thought that a discussion on the internet would descend into name-calling

                Clutch your pearls harder, I’m not the original commenter and your “discussion” was just you throwing out thought terminating cliches to disregard what people are saying and to ignore the implications of your argument.

                Own your position instead of complaining that I called it out with terse, judgmental language.

                  If you had tried to have a proper discussion, we would be having it. Instead you’re name calling. I am perfectly aware of the tragic end result of that pragmatic argument.

      Well you’d know because you have the intelligence that shows that Hamas has been stealing fuel reserves at large. And you’d confirm it by sending a few Jerry cans worth of fuel to the hospital to see if they’d be allowed on or if they’d be stolen. You’re acting like they didn’t attempt to help at all.

      These sorts of actions are designed to be trust building exercises. They prove viability of the general concept.
