I’ve seen examples Israel letting in humanitarian aid

Oh wow, how generous of them. Yesterday apparently they allowed 50 trucks carrying humanitarian aid, for 2.4M people. Please do the math and tell me do you seriously think this is enough?!? Those trucks are carrying not only food, but medical supplies and water. That’s extremely insufficient and is borderline cynical

but of course they have a concern about supplies getting in that would aid another attack.

Oh yes, humanitarian aid in the form of food, medical supplies and water can make a great bomb, that will obliterate half of Israel. Do you realise how your argument sounds?

Even fuel, never heard diesel to be used for any bomb or explosive. Or electricity. But please correct me if I am wrong.

More attention should be focused on why Egypt also has a blockade against Palestine in most respects too.

You are also missing the simple fact that actually Israel is also controlling the Rafah crossing, they were bombing it on a couple of occasions. Plus by saying this you are openly admitting that Israel is actively trying to land grab Gaza and expel all Gazans to Egypt. And a question for you with increased difficulty, how easy do you think for a developing country would be to assimilate 2.4M immigrants?

  Aren’t my points valid though? What’s your counter argument? Yes, I was being sarcastic to emphasize my point but this doesn’t make it less valuable as an input.

    I did suggest Egypt open their border for humanitarian aid, it’s the most obvious route. Food and water can go through. Medical trucks can go in.
    
    You are once again missing the simple fact that it’s not Egypt who is slowing down the humanitarian aid but the Israeli personnel, who are also reviewing what goes inside Gaza. So the state of Israel is directly responsible for the current situation. They can alleviate the suffering of Palestinians but it seems they are unwilling to do so, hence the collective punishment narrative. And for the record they started allowing aid only after substantial international pressure on them. How humane is this?
    
    There are many concerned about humanitarian supplies being repurposed into weapons, which can actually happen.
    
    Please give me an example of what humanitarian aid can be weaponized? Plus if they wanted they could just ban particular items instead.
    
    Egypt can supply them with electricity like Israel was before.
    
    You do realise that It is not possible to build the infrastructure to transfer electricity to another country which is also an active a war zone overnight, right?
