I believe it's because Israel controls the battlefield at this point, and no one wants to risk the lives of their aid workers getting killed in the middle of a fight between Israel and Hamas. Otherwise, as Mike points out, the aid will just sit there behind the front lines unless it's airdropped, and airdropping is not an ideal method either due to inevitable loss of life when a huge aid pallet drops on top of civilians trying to chase it down and crushes them. They usually try to drop aid on an open sandy beach so as to have plenty of clearing for civilians to dodge any falling pallets. But if the wind blows in the wrong direction, it can also end up in the ocean.

If you're talking about how backward the world is right now, that's true. The world has a long way to go before we're beyond the barbarism of today. In the meantime, innocents are caught between the warring parties and there is tremendous loss of innocent lives. As Acelifine stated, there is credible evidence of Hamas killing Palestinian civilians trying to get hold of aid, accusing them of "treason" for accepting foreign aid. So Hamas is a pretty bad problem also.

The world has a lot of growing to do and my own country very badly needs to change its behavior. However, the Republicans currently in power tend to be ultra nationalistic and think that not chanting "America first" and "America Number 1" shows that a citizen not doing it "hates America". So we're pretty much stuck right now.

There are many people in this world who are aware of the changes that need to be made (obviously including you and me), but we're at the mercy of world leaders who are too selfish and acquire their power through scaring their citizens over real or else imagined enemies. Most of the major world players are all dragging their feet, especially the US and Russia.

I believe it's because Israel controls the battlefield at this point, and no one wants to risk the lives of their aid workers getting killed in the middle of a fight between Israel and Hamas.
The very point I was making in what I said and wrote above, here, is that you, and the rest of 'the world', have once more just allowed another instance of another country and its religious people with very closed views and 'more and/or bigger weapons' to just take over and control another country, and it's people and culture, through systemic continued colonization, and ethnic cleansing.

And, the fact that you missed 'this' and are, still, 'trying to justify' 'this', saddens me quite a lot "garry childress'.

If absolutely any adult human being wants to deny 'aid' to another human being, and especially more so in regards to a child, then 'that one' is best not living, here, on earth.

Is it really impossible for the 'rest of the world' to not support, and just stop, just one being from doing Wrong?
Gary Childress wrote: Tue Jul 29, 2025 3:32 am Otherwise, as Mike points out, the aid will just sit there behind the front lines unless it's airdropped,
AGAIN, the 'point' in what I said and write is 'the world' has let 'aid' 'sit' because one human being has decided to not allow children and babies, if all things, not get 'the aid', which they literally needed for their continual survival, here, on earth
Gary Childress wrote: Tue Jul 29, 2025 3:32 am and airdropping is not an ideal method either due to inevitable loss of life when a huge aid pallet drops on top of civilians trying to chase it down and crushes them.
Lol... you have just been 'trying to justify' the taking over and killing of tens of thousands, and if not then the hundreds of thousands, of human beings, by bombs of all sizes, and the continued attempt to completely eradicate, from earth, that group of same people, but then you show 'some concern' that just one human being might be killed from distributing aid, itself, on cbig pallets' of wood.

Oh the irony.

Dropping 'bombs' and killing tens of thousands in one very specific group of people was perfectly fine and okay, but dropping 'aid' when one 'might' get killed is bad and wrong, and some thing to rethink and 'consider'.

How about you 'consider' the Wrongness in giving one human being 'the power' to 'decide' who lives, and who dies, and within a specific group of people, which 'that one', very clearly, hates and despises.

Please reply with this absolutely insignificant crap to anyone else, and, please show that you have comprehended at least 'some' sort of wrongness, here, in regards to 'the world' allowing one human being to willingly and happily kill children and babies, and to ethnic or cultural cleanse, the same group of human beings, which 'that one' absolutely despises.

It is like these adult human beings, in the days when this was being written, actually accepted and agreed with what "adolf hitler" was doing to a specific group of human beings, only as long as 'the group' of people who are, 'now', being killed and ethnically and culturally cleansed are on their 'despised list', as well.

1.So, why, exactly, do you keep 'trying to justify' the barbarism?

2. Actually there is not that 'long a way' to go at all. you human beings just need to learn how to do a few things, first, before you start to begin to 'look at' and 'see' things in the 'proper and Correct way', here, in Life
Gary Childress wrote: Tue Jul 29, 2025 3:32 am In the meantime, innocents are caught between the warring parties
Yes, children are caught up in between warring adults.
Gary Childress wrote: Tue Jul 29, 2025 3:32 am and there is tremendous loss of innocent lives.
I agree, that a tremendous amount of children and babies have been killed and are continually being killed. But, essentially, this is, exactly, what some of you adult human beings want and are trying to do. To some 'revenge' makes them, superficially, happy, and content
Gary Childress wrote: Tue Jul 29, 2025 3:32 am As Acelifine stated, there is credible evidence of Hamas killing Palestinian civilians trying to get hold of aid, accusing them of "treason" for accepting foreign aid.
Have you ever noticed that 'the one', here, called "accelafine" has never recognized nor acknowledged any Wrong doing by the "jews" of "israel"? Or, if you have, then will you please present 'it'?

Now, where is and what is this so-called credible evidence', exactly?

Also, and by the way, you appear to have forgotten that I do not 'do evidence', for the blatantly obvious clear reason.
Gary Childress wrote: Tue Jul 29, 2025 3:32 am So Hamas is a pretty bad problem also.
Once again, the 'problem' word is used, without any 'actual problem' at all being presented.

These 'posters', here, still had not 'worked out' what 'the definition' of the word 'problem' even is, and, is in relation to, exactly. Which is why there was no wonder at all why so many 'actual problems' remained unresolved, back in the days when this was being written.

And watch, not a shred of curiosity nor interest will be shown in regards to learning and understanding more, nor anew, here

'They' just kept on doing, what they do, and kept wondering why there were so many 'problems' in 'the world'.

Once again 'this one' 'signs' absolutely every 'ounce' of its own responsibility and power over to another human being/s.

'Trying to blame' something or someone else only creates more 'problems' and create more 'mess', in 'the world'.

'Trying to blame' others never fixes any thing, and in fact only makes things worse. you, and ultimately 'the world', can never change for the better while responsibilty is always assigned to some one/thing else.

I will repeat, "garry childress", you, and you only, here, have allowed "your" 'self' to be at the mercy of another human being.

I never have, and, I never will.

Do you understand, this time?

1. Why wait for the oxymoronic word, "leaders' to do any thing?

2. Those people are actually not 'dragging their feet' at all, and what they are 'actually doing' is dragging all you human beings 'down' to your own downfall, and demise

The US needs to stop playing global cop. That can be accomplished by not invading or attacking other countries unjustifiably, like we did Iraq.

Do you really think the proplasticiners give a shit about that? All they care about is creating as much chaos as possible to bring down what they think of as 'the West'. I don't recall any of them giving a crap about US and British invasions in the ME over the past several decades, but with Israel gone it would mean they can really find an outlet for their Jew-hatred (with the bonus of virtue-signalling brownie points) and have the islamist dystopian nightmare they crave (they seem to think it won't affect them, bless their little wokie 'hearts').

Imagine following and worshiping one who has the pure hatred of a group of people with just different views and beliefs, and then supporting 'that one' in their ethnical cleansing of that group, like "accelafine" obviously has and is clearly doing.

Lol...a completely delusional response again made by 'this one'.

There is not a single sentence nor word, let alone absolutely any thing, here, by me that could be logically construed as what is claimed, here, by "accelafine". But, because it is clearly so closed, blind, and one-sided it can on 'see' what it is, here, now.

Imagine if the "moderators", here, became aware of 'one' who was very clearly fraudulently placing words under the username of others, and thus who is 'trying to deceive readers, here. Imagine how that would look, especially it were to occur in a philosophy forum, of all places. Imagine the personality, attitude, and intent of a person who who even think of doing such a thing as this.

Obviously only one who can not argue their positions successfully and one can not stand up to be scrutinized, questioned, and/or challenged would resort to such lying and deceitful behaviors.

It could be said that one would have a 'right to vomit' if one such as this existed within a philosophy forum, of all places.

Re: Israel to allow foreign countries to drop aid into Gaza.

Post by MikeNovack »

We are talking about the air drops, right. Why they might be good, necessary.

The ground methods of getting aid to the people of Gaza involves first getting that aid into Gaza, getting the trucks through Israeli border comtrol (or Egyptian) and second, having unloaded the trucks into stockpiles, distributing from there.

There is, at the present time a very large quantity stockpiled inside Gaza that just sits there undistributed. The UN and other aid agencies just won't distribute it. They can't, really. It's not directly because of the Israelis, fear of being fired upon by the Israelis.The Israelis would give the UN and other aid agencies safe (from them) windows. WHY? Israeli self interest.

The problem is that Hamas demands of the UN and other aid agencies that the supplies be turned over to them to control distribution. Not unnatural for a faction claiming being the government of Gaza. If the UN and other aid agencies tried distributing directly, they would be killed by Hamas. << do you now see why even evil Israelis (if you see them that way) would consider it in THEIR interest not to block the UN and other agencies from distributing. They win either way. Get to RIGHTLY claim either 1) Look at Hamas attacking/killing aid workers or 2) Look, the aid supposedly going to the civilian Palestinians is going to Hamas.

Airdropping is dangerous, people will get hurt rushing beneath loads coming down. But it is getting supplies in over the heads of Hamas (not really over the heads of the Israelis as they have total control of the skies there). The Israelis are cooperating with the airdrops.
