The Palestinian Authority continues to block Gazans from getting needed medical aid. “Pro-Palestinian” groups remain silent.

From the UN’s OCHA-OPT report for the last two weeks of June:

An eight-month-old baby boy, who needed a heart surgery at an Israeli hospital, could not exit Gaza and died on 18 June. Since 21 May, the PA has not accepted or transferred applications for exit permits from Gaza to the Israeli authorities, as a response to Israel’s plan to annex parts of the West Bank. Since then, only few patients referred for medical treatment in the West Bank or Israel managed to exit Gaza, with the help of NGOs or international agencies.

Not only does the Palestinian Authority stop these medical transfers, but so do Palestinian NGOs – the NGOs that the UN refers to are Israeli NGOs.

As is always the case, Israel and Israelis care more about Palestinian lives than Palestinians do. The PLO and PA and Fatah and Hamas are eager to sacrifice their own people for nebulous “principles,” in this case the “principle” of not talking to Jews to save Palestinian lives.

The world remains unmoved by the cruelty that Palestinians show to their own people, because the false narrative of Israel hating Palestinians is too strong to allow counterexamples to be widely spread.
