The Israel Defense Forces have taken control of the Rafah crossing – between Gaza and Egypt – with which Tel Aviv has effectively taken charge of the entire perimeter of the Strip, reopening the Kerem Shalom crossing yesterday, but … after preventing the entry of humanitarian aid through the south. It is hoped that this is a closure caused by the military operation, and that trucks with water, food, medicine and medical supplies will quickly reach the population. Although the previous indications from the Israeli forces for the population near Rafah to move to a clearing on the seashore, and the difficult escape of thousands of families to areas of the Strip further north, suggest that humanitarian aid will not It is part of Israeli priorities. Those of an operation that the White House seemed to consider yesterday as contained, in the face of the eventuality of a large-scale offensive. Enough so that the conflict that seemed to escalate throughout the Middle East has been returned to the confrontation between Israel and Hamas. The Israeli objective of ending Hamas cannot continue to affect the entire Palestinian population so seriously. Despite the fact that the terrorists persist in maintaining a relationship of complicity with the people crowded into southern Gaza, Israel is obliged to preserve the integrity of those who, rather than colluding with Hamas and Islamic Jihad, are their hostages.
The Minister of Social Rights and Commerce, Pablo Bustinduy, must have felt a participant in the Government’s policy when he addressed a “request” to Spanish companies that maintain relations in or with Israel, demanding that they account for their possible collaboration with the genocide. For the Ministries of Foreign Affairs and Economy to make it clear yesterday that this was not a Government decision would require that Bustinduy be disavowed, and his letters considered personal or party-related by the president. It is legitimate and understandable that there should be demonstrations of solidarity with Palestinian families who fear the worst in Gaza or have reason to feel harassed in the West Bank. But if Sumar’s partners try to distinguish themselves from their socialist ally in this matter, it is because they think that Sánchez has decided to turn Palestine into one of his flags. Those responsible for every democratic country cannot forget, not even for a moment, that every reasoned criticism of Israel must be accompanied by an unmitigated denunciation of the purposes behind Palestinian terrorism.
