As my mother would say in Yiddish, "In mittern drinnen?"
This is a desperation move to appease the Muslims, radicals like Rashida Tlaib, and the anti-Israel protesters in the United States.
I won't be watching that senile fool's speech tonight, but I can already predict the constant cheering and applause from the Democrats and "The Squad" when he reaches that part.
And as usual, it's Israel that's the bad guy, the villain, and one starving the "Palestinians" and "committing genocide".
As usual, the October 7 massacre against Israel has been all but forgotten.
Melanie Phillips has a column I just saw on the same topic, with the perfect headline:
The scapegoating of Israel: Humanitarian aid has become the blood libel of the day.
First, she talks about the UK:
“The U.K. supports Israel’s right to self-defense,” he began. “But as the occupying power in Gaza, Israel has a legal responsibility to ensure aid is available for civilians. That responsibility has consequences, including when we as the U.K. assess whether Israel is compliant with international humanitarian law.”
"What breathtaking arrogance and malice. How dare Cameron presume to dictate to Israel how to conduct this desperate war for its survival?
"Israel isn’t “the occupying power” in Gaza. It is fighting a war there to defend the lives of its people against a genocidal enemy. How dare Cameron demand Israel take measures to weaken that defense through allowing in “items for infrastructure repair”—such as, presumably, the concrete and other building materials used by Hamas to construct its infernal underground infrastructure of terror and mass murder?
"And if Israel doesn’t thus sabotage its attempt to destroy Hamas, the U.K. is threatening to destroy the Jewish state at the U.N. Cameron himself said at the end of January that the U.K. was considering recognition of a Palestinian state as a way of pressuring Israel to accept a “two-state solution” after a ceasefire in Gaza.
"In other words, unless Israel agrees to allow Hamas to survive, the U.K. will do two things: It will throw the Jewish state to the Hamas-supporting wolves at the U.N. and force into existence a terrorist entity that would put Israel’s heartlands in danger of Oct. 7-style pogroms on steroids.
And here's her take on the US:
"Similar pressure on Israel has come from the Biden administration. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken called the humanitarian situation in Gaza “unacceptable and unsustainable.”
"State Department spokesman Matthew Miller claimed this week that Israeli government ministers were “obstacles” to aid by blocking the release of flour from the port of Ashdod and supporting protests that blocked supplies from the Kerem Shalom crossing point.
'It would seem that Israel’s principal allies in the U.K. and U.S. are determined to ensure that Israel doesn’t defeat Hamas, and are actually serving as a megaphone for the terror group’s distorted and manipulative claims of a humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza.
"Certainly, there is death and suffering among the civilian population. This is horrible and deeply regrettable as the inevitable consequence of war. But the scale of the crisis is being hysterically exaggerated.
"On January 30, CNN reported: “Palestinians are eating grass and drinking polluted water as famine looms across Gaza.” Yet on the same day, COGAT, which coordinates Israeli government activities in Judea, Samaria and Gaza, published a video of Gazans queuing up at a plentiful shawarma stand in Rafah.
"Social media footage has shown well-stocked Rafah markets. There have also been videos of Gazans contemptuously throwing air-dropped ready-to-eat meals into the trash."

I am sick and tired of the Biden administration vilifying Israel and acting as public relations agency/propagandist for both Gaza and Hamas.
Israel must continue to fight back - unapologetically!
