It is irrelevant. Israel shouldn't block other countries from sending whatever aid, obviously making sure there's no arms.

>it allowed the US to build a pier for food delivery
You mean the one that Israel was caught on camera using to help carry out a raid (the Nuseirat refugee camp massacre) that killed 276 civilians and injured over 600? And then promptly disintegrated after spending only 20 days distributing 1/5 of the aid actually needed?
How magnanimous of them. Why don't we send them another billion off our paychecks to fund their free healthcare to thank them?

> a peace deal that ends all this Netanyahu, Smotrich and Ben-Gvir do not want this peace deal either. There is 0 chance it would be honored.
Netanyahu signed on. I am asking why Hamas won't accept it.
When Israel has broken all of the previous peace deals, you would have to be deeply idiotic to accept one brokered by Trump of all people.

Because the Rafah crossing is currently controlled by the Israeli army. Egypt can allow all the aid it wants, it’ll still get stopped by the Israelis.

These articles are from over a year ago and they all say that Israel took control of the Rafah border.
"On May 7, Israeli forces seized the main border crossing at Rafah, closing a vital route for aid into the besieged enclave."
Understandably, the Egyptian government does not want to coordinate with the Israeli government after seeing how the Israeli-organized aid sites have been going.

#185Israel blocks the entry of Plumpy Nut into Gaza, a peanut-butter like paste meant for treating severe acute malnutrition. They say it is a luxury item Hamas might steal.[1] The amount of evidence Israel is committing genocide is embarrassing. [1] https://x.com/DropSiteNews/status/1971582137947295831

> Gaza was given to the Palestinians for free in 2005. That doesn't mean anything. Israel was illegally occupying Gaza before 2005, and has been illegally blockading it since. And every single year for the past 50 years or more, Israel has murdered more Palestinians than the Palestinians have murdered Israelis - most years, at least 2 dead Palestinians for every dead Israeli. Not to mention, Netanyahu has been one of…

Oh yes, the people killing tens of thousands of children are the ones who value human life.

The way Israel is alienating much of the rest of the world is unlikely to help with that. More importantly, the end doesn’t justify the means.
Israel is prioritizing defeating Hamas over making the world like it. This is partly due to the incompetence of the government, partly due to the impossible realities on the ground, but also partly due to an understanding that the survival of Hamas in Gaza and their perceived win is a larger threat.
I would also say that it's the propaganda war against Israel that's causing most of the alienation. To some extent Israel can do no right here and its critics aren't really proposing any alternatives that they would be able to live with if they were in a similar situation. The extent to which social (and traditional) media has been mobilized as part of the war here is unprecedented.
Re: "end and means" why is this argument made here but not e.g. wrt/ the world's war on ISIS/ISIL or Al Qaeda? Or WW-II? Should Ukraine surrender because the end (having a free/democratic Ukraine aligned with the west?) doesn't justify the "means"?
