2. Oh for gawd's sake! Of course there will be restrictions on who is eligible to give and receive aid!

It ain't gonna be Hamas! That is the whole idea.

Hamas sustains itself by controlling, receiving, distributing, diverting and withholding aid in Gaza! A terrorist group controlling food distribution in Gaza... and the unnamed officials didn't see how this allowed "military and political objectives to impede humanitarian goals, put restrictions on who is eligible to give and receive aid, and could force large numbers of Palestinians to move" until now? What an absurdity!

Why so much sudden concern about what might happen and no concern at all about the shitshow that HAS BEEN happening, right before their eyes, for years?

BTW, Israeli proposal calls for independent US contractors to distribute aid directly to civilians.

I am far more concerned about the real reason(s) why the aforementioned "groups" and unnamed UN officials became so concerned about the prospects of Hamas losing control of aid distribution in Gaza.
