> Over the weekend, I embedded with the Israel Defense Forces in Gaza, where I saw the enormous quantities of humanitarian aid the United Nations has been refusing to distribute.

Very weird that the military that controls access to the Gaza Strip is blaming the UN? Delivering aid themselves is ostensibly why Israel and the US created the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (although the true motivation seems to be gathering desperate Palestinians in one spot so they can mass murder them; more than 1,000 Palestinians have been killed by the IDF's soldiers and mercenaries at GHF aid sites [2]).

Anyway, this conversation obviously isn't going to go anywhere. I'll just end by saying that it's extremely obvious to anyone remotely paying attention that Israel is committing depraved war crimes against a defenseless people here, which is why public opinion has shifted so dramatically against it.

Edit: I just looked up the author of that WSJ article and he's a former IDF sergeant? Pretty relevant detail for him to omit!
