    At no point was a pier planned for north Gaza, the first place to be evacuated, six months ago.

    Israel will be inspecting every delivery since Hamas has proved again and again that if it takes part in international commerce, it will be in the business of killing Jews. That’s why they didn’t have their own port to begin with. It’s not a choke point, it’s a highway interchange. That’s generally where you want to build the port. It’s literally the opposite of a choke point.

    Egypt is in charge of the southern border crossing not Israel. Egypt doesn’t want terrorists moving weapons and fighters over its border, either.

      We are all familiar with the genocidaires’ explanations/pretexts for why they are blockading humanitarian aid, thanks, you don’t need to rehash them here.

      Egypt doesn’t want terrorists

      More to the point Egypt doesn’t want to give Israel a pretext for constant drone strikes in Egyptian territory now that every Palestinian refugee child is supposedly “Hamas”.

      But either side can close a border, that’s intrinsic to borders.
