There is a lot going on here and the proper context of WCK and the aid needed by Palestinians must be understood.
The Palestinians need the hundreds of trucks that are lined up at Rafah border and they need UNRWA to provide basic essentials of life. This is the main issue that is now harming Palestinian people. Israel denying the massive convoy of trucks and Israel/America defunding UNRWA, a crucial UN aid agency that the Palestinians depend on for living. This World Central Kitchen is an American/Israeli coordinated attempt to replace UNRWA and this is extremely limited. Jose Andres, founder of WCK, has made pro-Israel statements before so no wonder Israel has no objections to him offering his help. This is not to excuse or to diminish anything. The killing of those 7 WCK workers was terrible and it shows how Israel is and how it has treated Palestinians for decades.
The point here is that Jose Andres and his WCK are approved by Israel and this should raise some questions. Of course, now Israelis and Americans are very upset and they are going out of their way that it was a mistake to attack the aid workers but WCK is a Western aid agency that apparently America/Israel thinks will be enough to provide food to Palestinians. This is not the case, not even close. The only way for Palestinians to survive adequately is for the Rafah border to open and UNRWA to be fully restored, everything else is helping Israel commit genocide. (This is not to diminish the role of WCK and they should be thanked for their service)
It must be said that Israel has killed so many aid workers already that they were not mentioned to the same level as what we saw recently. Why is this? Is it because WCK is mainly a Western organization so they deserve more coverage? What about all the UNRWA workers that Israel killed? Or the Palestinian aid workers and medical workers? We don't hear about them in Western news. Israel routinely attacks Palestinian medical workers.
This is from NBC News:
The killing of seven aid workers from World Central Kitchen may mark a turning point in support for Israel and for long frustrated efforts to bring relief to Palestinians on the brink of starvation.
But while the Israel Defense Forces investigation suggests this was an isolated “grave mistake,” the mounting toll faced by aid agencies throughout the war points instead to what they say are systemic failings in the IDF’s approach to protecting humanitarian workers in the Gaza Strip. According to the United Nations, a total of 224 humanitarian aid workers have been killed since the start of the war.
Monday’s strike has inflamed global outrage that has coalesced into international pressure, forcing Israel to open new points of entry for humanitarian aid.
Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, have issued rare expressions of contrition about the killings, and the IDF said Friday that it had removed two senior officers from their posts after a probe found the targeting of the
aid convoy with three successive missile strikes to be in violation of IDF protocol.
So the question is why has it taken Western media to start being actually critical of Israel this long? Why is Biden just now getting angry? Why are Western people just now calling for stopping of weapons to Israel? They waited 6+ months and maybe 40,000 Palestinians to be killed to start being outraged. But this is what happens when Israel has so much power over Western world. Germany is shaking in its boots to not get called anti-Semitic so we know Germany will give Israel everything it asks for. Same thing with America. Joe Biden and some Democrats might say one thing but the Republicans want to give Israel unlimited aid. So this is just theatre once again. Israel will get everything it asks for from the Western world.
