Israel's military tells UN in Gaza: ask Hamas for fuel
reuters.com

Israel's military suggested on Tuesday that the United Nations ask Hamas for fuel supplies after the U.N. agency providing aid to Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip warned it would have to halt operations on Wednesday night if no fuel was delivered.

The agency, known as UNRWA, posted its warning on social media on Tuesday. The Israel Defense Forces reposted it and said that Hamas militants have more than 500,000 litres of fuel in tanks inside besieged Gaza.

"Ask Hamas if you can have some," the IDF wrote.

I have to say, Israelis are pretty good at cutting down my empathy towards them.

And then they turn around and ask for funds/resources from the US.

No asking required, Biden promised 'unconditional support'. It's a blank cheque and they couldn't even write "not for genocide" on it.

It seems like they may be getting advice from Elon on how to piss off everyone.
