To keep power, Israel's prime minister bows to the far-right on civilian deaths and hunger in Gaza, even though this plays into Hamas' hands.
Shawwa, 41, was “gentle, kind, and effective, a dedicated humanitarian,” I was told by Sean Carroll, the CEO of the nonprofit American aid agency Anera, which has been delivering humanitarian relief in the Middle East since 1968. Shawwa had been a valued member of Anera’s staff for nearly 15 years. Yet, despite pleas from heads of other nongovernmental organizations , and even senior UAE officials, Anera couldn’t get him through Israeli and Egyptian checkpoints and out the Rafah crossing in time to make a plane out of El Arish, Egypt, on Friday. The boy died.Around 200 humanitarian aid workers from the United Nations and private international aid agencies have been killed, said Carroll.
And as Nimrod Novik, former foreign policy adviser to Shimon Peres, and executive board member of Commanders for Israel’s Security,: “If you want the support of the international community for more time , you have to show this is not a war on Palestinian civilians.”Instead, driven by his hard-right ministers, who openly seek to drive Palestinians out of Gaza and the West Bank, Netanyahu has proved indifferent to civilian casualties.
