Israel's military announces a brief window for people in northern Gaza to flee south

20. Cynical, impossible, heartless CYA move.

This is cruel beyond words.

A 3-hour window to walk 10-20 miles on a broken road littered with body parts. With children, elderly, injured and sick. Weak from subsisting on 2 pieces of bread a day per the UN and dehydrated and sick from dirty water.

Most Gazans don't have cars. If they do, there is little gas available. So walking would have been the only option for most, an impossibility.

This is a cynical and cruel CYA move.

A sickening passage from the article:

"By the end of this window, an NPR reporter in Gaza had not encountered anyone able to use this so-called safe passage. Several drivers there shared that it was impossible for anyone to make it through on the damaged street.

One driver told NPR that he and his brother were heading south and found that the roads were not passable, that "there are holes in the ground, and we saw body parts strewn all over Salah al-Din," the main highway in the Gaza Strip."

If Israel thinks they have gained impunity from more war crimes with this cynical move, and can continue to victim-blame, they really don't understand most of the world sees it very differently.
