Speaking at a news conference in Doha, Qatar, alongside Qatar’s prime minister and minister of foreign affairs, Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, Mr. Blinken said that “a deal was on the table that was virtually identical” to one that Hamas put forward on May 6.

At some point, he said, “you have to question whether they’re proceeding in good faith or not.”

    One person does not mean millions of calories per day, they need thousands. I believe the total food aid allowed into Gaza is around 3000 calories per person per day.

      Only if you believe the government caught lying multiple times in this war unconditionally.

      Non-biased sources say that it is closer to 245 calories per day.

      Also, and this isn’t about the conflict, but people arguing in good faith don’t confuse per capita measurements with gross measurements and call the people making that point in one stupid for using those figures consistently. That just makes you an asshole.

        The math doesn’t add up. If Gazans are receiving 245 calories a day and about half the food trucks they need, then either the former or the latter is incorrect. LMAO

        But really, Gaza should have probably thought about how to feed their own populace before starting a war of aggression. It’s not exactly Israel’s job to feed a hostile populace which declared war on them. I’m simply glad that they’re allowing food trucks in. It’s better than most would have done and empowers their enemies.

          It literally is for countries occupying other countries during a war.

          That is a job of an occupying force that if it doesn’t do is LITERALLY A WAR CRIME for exactly this reason.

          The US, as bad as it was for what it did in the countries it invaded STILL didn’t do this. Israel is looking for special treatment by not having to live up to this standard that other countries in combat have lived up to.

          I guess I really shouldn’t expect competence from a conscript army.

          Northern Gaza, jackass. When you destroy distribution functions of a society, shit becomes non uniformly distributed.

          Keep arguing with just utterly easy to show wrong responses based off of bad faith readings of what I’m saying, it makes my responses that much easier to write in an understandable format.

          EDIT: Correction, I’m not wasting more time on a propaganda brained nationalist.

              Nope.

              Things that you’ve done that make me think you are propaganda:

              1. Argued in bad faith ( intentionally conflating per-capita measurements with gross measurements to imply the other person is stupid, never acknowledges points where the other person has to correct you and instead just ignores the areas that you’ve been proven wrong )

              2. Believing only one source of information that is explicitly biased and comes from one of the combatants.

              3. Ignores sources of information from independent sources. This ties into point one, as you also don’t acknowledge any statements shown to be incorrect.

              You’re free to disagree with anyone you want to. When you do the above you are either paid, or a dumbshit teenager that still enjoys trolling for the sake of trolling. I don’t really care which one it is, as you’re doing on the corpses of innocent children.

              Oh, that’s right, from your other comments it is clear that you don’t believe there are any innocents in the region. Guess you forgot that collective punishment itself is also a war crime.

                Don’t start wars. Wars are bad. Fuck Hamas and fuck anyone who supported them. I wish their kids had parents who gave a shit about them.

                  Putting things in stupid caps doesn’t change international law. It also doesn’t change what literally every other nation in the world is expected to do, and does, in times of war.

                  You’re literally expecting different treatment for Israel, allowing them to commit war crimes, because they’re … special?

                  You do realize that having a different response to Israel doing something versus other countries is literally one of the definitions of antisemitism from the IHRA, right?

                  I wish the Israelis weren’t intent on intentionally causing as much collateral damage as possible to intentionally thin the population to a minimum(An intention actually stated by Bibi.)

                    Yes, the response to Israel doing something is indeed always more severe than when any other country does it.

                    As to war crimes, I’ve never seen any evidence of intentional targeting of civilians as a matter of policy. I’ve seen evidence of individual soldiers doing that, and that’s happened in every war. It’s why war is bad, and you shouldn’t start wars.

                    There is not a single country on this planet which would tolerate an organization like Hamas remaining in power after an event like Oct 7.
