Feeding the People of Gaza

The people of Gaza need to eat.
Israel is worried that Hamas will steal the food

Solution - Create individual meal kits (sorta like MREs) and run a massive airdrop similar to the Berlin Airlift from WW2.

This would get the food directly to the people bypassing Hamas, Israel could include a "Brought to you by Israel" message to help counter the Hamas messaging.

Egypt, Europe, and the US could provide aircraft and air defense.

1. If Israel wanted people in Gaza to have food they would have food. Starvation is one of their tactics.

2. Hamas are Palestinians. They are a separate race. They are in with the people.

That’s why Israel can’t eliminate them. They are and will steal food no matter what. They are a parasite in the country.
