I’m sorry but this brazenly wrong and a form of propaganda; you need to provide evidence for your claims. Hamas-employed Gaza police shoot at gangs that rob the aid containers with the implicit protection of Israel. Many videos have been posted spuriously claiming without any evidence that the individuals highjackimg the aid “are Hamas” when all documented evidence points to the very opposite. Just two days ago: Gangs looting Gaza aid operate in areas under Israeli control, aid groups say “Officials said criminal looting has become the greatest impediment to distributing aid in the southern half of Gaza, home to the vast majority of displaced Palestinians. Armed bands of men have killed, beaten and kidnapped aid truck drivers in the area around Israel’s Kerem Shalom crossing, the main entry point into Gaza’s south, aid workers and transport companies said. The thieves, who have run cigarette-smuggling operations throughout this year but are now also stealing food and other supplies, are tied to local crime families, residents say. The gangs are described by observers as rivals of Hamas and, in some cases, they have been targeted by remnants of Hamas’s security forces in other parts of the enclave.” ‘An internal United Nations memo obtained by The Washington Post concluded last month that the gangs “may be benefiting from a passive if not active benevolence” or “protection” from the Israel Defense Forces. One gang leader, the memo said, established a “military like compound” in an area “restricted, controlled and patrolled by the IDF.”’ https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2024/11/18/gaza-looting-aid-convoys-israel-famine/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2024/11/18/gaza-looting...

> you need to provide evidence for your claims There's tons of it, plenty of mainstream media reported it while it was happening. If you choose not to believe it, that's because of your biases and no amount of hard evidence will sway you. Also ask yourself, why has Egypt had a blockade against Gaza for longer than Israel?

  Because they don't want Israel's prisoners to spill over into their country. Israel has controlled what can pass the border since 2007 or so.

      So you agree that Israel has controlled Egypt's border to Gaza then.

        > Israel has controlled what can pass the border since 2007 or so. "The" refers to Israel's border by normal English rules. Seems you're being deliberately obtuse. And it's absurd to think Egypt didn't have control over their own border. Egypt didn't want Palestinians crossing for other reasons (they have a history of terrorism in moderate Muslim states).

        > it's absurd to think Egypt didn't have control over their own border Why do you hold this opinion? Israel literally controls the Rafah border crossing between Egypt and Gaza, and has bombed it several times. If Egypt and Gaza agreed to let anything pass, there's a good chance Israel would bomb it again. Also, "[nationality/ethnic group of people] have a history of terrorism" is racist.

        You can find context in your post that I replied to. And even in my own post. >Because they don't want Israel's prisoners to spill over into their country. Israel's zionists has a pretty long history of terrorism as well, even against the British.

  Egypt is not allowed to bring any cargo into Gaza, at the behest of both Israel and the USA. They are rewarded for their compliance with international aid. "The Rafah Border Crossing is the only crossing point between Egypt and the Gaza Strip. It is located on the international border that was confirmed in the 1979 Egypt–Israel peace treaty. Only passage of persons takes place through the Rafah Border Crossing; as such, the Egypt–Gaza border is only open to the passage of people, not of goods. All cargo traffic must go through Israel, usually through the Israeli-controlled Kerem Shalom border crossing on the Gaza–Israel barrier." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egypt%E2%80%93Gaza_border#:~:text=Only%20passage%20of%20persons%20takes,on%20the%20Gaza%E2%80%93Israel%20barrier https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egypt%E2%80%93Gaza_border#:~:t....
