Reactie Israël na oproep E3 van 22 apr
Op 22 april schreef de E3 (DE/FR/UK) in https://www.diplomatie.gouv.fr/en/country-files/israel-palestinian-territories/news/2025/article/on-50-days-of-the-aid-block-in-gaza-joint-statement-on-behalf-of-the-foreign onder meer:
❝
Palestinian civilians - including one million children – face an acute risk of starvation, epidemic disease and death. This must end. We urge Israel to immediately re-start a rapid and unimpeded flow of humanitarian aid to Gaza in order to meet the needs of all civilians.
❞
Met "urge" blijven het loze woorden. Want er wordt GEEN ENKELE consequentie aan verbonden als Israël doorgaat met het vermoorden van meer dan twee miljoen Gazanen, buitenlandse hulpverleners en 56 Israëlische gegijzelden.
Dat Israël, kort samengevat, met 
reageert (zie de screenshots), mag dan ook voor niemand een verrassing zijn.
Minister Itamar Ben Gvir wil zelfs de resterende voorraden aan humanitaire hulp in Gaza bombarderen, en claimt Republikeinse steun voor dat plan te hebben gevonden in Mar-a-Lago (het feestpaleis van Donald Trump: meer info in https://infosec.exchange/@ErikvanStraten/114391932101327168).
We zijn getuige van de moord op 2+ miljoen Gazanen, waarvan 1 miljoen kinderen, maar we doen niets dat dit belet. Ook de #NOS zwijgt er angstvallig over, en binnenkort gaan we "onze" doden herdenken.
Wow.

Israel is fighting Hamas, which steals humanitarian aid, uses it to rebuild its war machine, and hides behind civilians.
We categorically reject the claim of “politicization of humanitarian aid” as stated in the E3’s statement.
Article 70 of the First Additional Protocol to the Geneva Conventions requires aid when “the civilian population is not adequately supplied.” During the 42-day ceasefire, 25,000 aid trucks entered Gaza. Israel is monitoring the situation on the ground, and there is no shortage of aid in Gaza.
According to Article 23 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, a side is not obliged to allow in aid if it is “likely to assist the military or economic efforts of the enemy.” Hamas hijacked the humanitarian aid to rebuild its terror machine.
The E3 statement fails to mention the most important thing: Hamas is the one targeting Israeli civilians while hiding behind Palestinian civilians. Instead, the E3 statement chose to accuse Israel of strikes on humanitarian personnel and healthcare facilities — this is morally twisted and wrong. As the war against Hamas continues, Israel is taking all necessary precautions. [...]

[...] In cases where incidents occur, as tragically happens in any war, the IDF conducts thorough and transparent investigations and draws the necessary conclusions. All condemnations should be directed at Hamas, which hides in hospitals and behind civilians.
Unbelievably, the E3 statement addresses only in passing the fact that Hamas still holds 59 hostages in inhumane conditions underground — starving and torturing them. This is unacceptable and inhumane.
The so-called balance that the E3 statement is trying to create between Israel and Hamas is ethically outrageous.
Hamas started this war, and Hamas is responsible for its continuation and for the suffering of both Palestinians and Israelis.
The war can end tomorrow if the hostages are released and Hamas lays down its weapons.
