Gaza: Israel Kills Seven International Food Aid Workers
April 2nd, 2024Bomb an embassy, bomb aid workers trying to feed starving people – RFK Jr, Trump + Biden all still want to keep giving them as many bombs as they want plus US taxpayer money with NO CONDITIONS. RFK Jr needs to stop saying he is "anti war" immediately, a perversion of the term.

Citizens from Australia, Britain and Poland were among seven people working for celebrity chef Jose Andres’ World Central Kitchen who were killed in an Israeli airstrike in central Gaza on Monday, the NGO said.
The workers, who also included Palestinians and a dual citizen of the United States and Canada, were travelling in two armoured cars emblazoned with the WCK logo and another vehicle, WCK said in a statement.
Israel has long denied it is hindering the distribution of urgently needed food aid in Gaza, saying the problem is caused by the inability of international aid groups to get it to those in need.
Despite co-ordinating movements with the Israeli Defence Force, the convoy was hit as it was leaving its Deir al-Balah warehouse, after unloading more than 100 tons of humanitarian food aid brought to Gaza by sea, WCK said.
“This is not only an attack against WCK, this is an attack on humanitarian organizations showing up in the most dire of situations where food is being used as a weapon of war,” said Erin Gore, chief executive of World Central Kitchen.
“This is unforgivable.”
It is insufferable. Israel was established to protect its citizens from another Holocaust, yet they themselves have now created a worse one for the people around them who they’ve been harassing and picking off and whose land they’ve been stealing ever since they arrived.
Do they have so many terminator weapons aimed at the rest of the world that nobody dares to stop them? Or do the other countries’govts think genocide is ok? Or what?
The entire IDF should just say no and stand down.
Maximum sunlight, on the psychopaths/human vampires of the World.
I saw something on Australia’s ABC about the three vehicles, two of which were armoured, driving with 500m between vehicles at the time of attack before three sequential strikes. Wondering now whether they were targeted by the Lavender AI Israel denies using.

Lavendar AI:
“Once marked for assassination, low-level targets would be taken out in their homes – identified using a different AI system called ‘Gospel’ – with unguided bombs, while more precise munitions would be used on higher-ranking militants”.
Makes me think of the hundreds of doctors and nurses killed in their homes, many times with all their generational extended family. The Bolsheviks targeted the professional/intellectual/spiritual class too, killing hundreds of thousands in their Red Terror (Wikipedia):
Martin Latsis, chief of the Ukrainian Cheka, stated in the newspaper Krasny Terror (Red Terror):
We are not waging war against individual persons. We are exterminating the bourgeoisie as a class. During the investigation, do not look for evidence that the accused acted in deed or word against Soviet power. The first questions that you ought to put are: To what class does he belong? What is his origin? What is his education or profession? And it is these questions that ought to determine the fate of the accused. In this lies the significance and essence of the Red Terror

Same in Mao’s China. Same in Pol Pot’s Cambodia. But in Palestine, Israeli soldiers killed other Israelis to get at any and all Palestinians and anyone who tried to give them humanitarian aid. No questions, just bullets and bombs if you enter or haven’t yet left Palestine. “Never again” has become ‘Again and again’. In this cases, they do know what they do.
