The Jewish State Is Building a Ghetto

If Mordechai Anielewicz were alive today, he’d have died. The leader of the Jewish Combat Organization during the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising would have died of shame and disgrace at hearing the defense minister’s plans – with the full backing of the prime minister – to erect a “humanitarian city” in the southern Gaza Strip. Anielewicz would never have believed that anyone would dare conceive of such a diabolical plan 80 years after the Holocaust.

Human Rights, Legal Organizations Warn Privatized “Humanitarian” Operators in Gaza of the Risk of Legal Liability for Complicity in Serious Violations of International Law

We, the undersigned human rights and legal organizations, are extremely concerned with the recent replacement of impartial United Nations (“UN”) agencies and well-established humanitarian organizations with the newly-created Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (“GHF”), which is working in collaboration with the Israel government and U.S. private military and security companies (“PMSC”) in the famine-struck occupied Gaza Strip. This new model of privatized, militarized aid distribution constitutes a radical and dangerous shift away from established international humanitarian relief operations,[1] and, as we have seen during the three weeks of GHF’s operations in Gaza, one that is dehumanizing, repeatedly deadly and contributes to the forced displacement of the very population it purports to help.
