In reply to the discussion: Israeli protesters blocked aid trucks headed for Gaza, throwing the packages of food on the ground and destroying them. [View all]LeftInTX
(26,275 posts)57. Jerusalem Post and others listed the name of the group and I googled them and saw the fundraiser
The name of the group is
TZAV 9.
It's very clear on the fundraiser that they are blocking aide trucks. The US has denounced the group. So I reported the fundraiser to the FBI, so they can remove it from US sites.
Protesters torch aid trucks headed for Gaza through West Bank - report
Protesters from the Tzav 9 movement vandalized several humanitarian aid trucks that were headed to Gaza near the Tarqumiya Checkpoint near Hebron in the southern West Bank on Monday, according to Israeli media.
US stresses humanitarian aid should not be impeded
The United States on Monday raised with Israel an incident of protesters blocking aid trucks headed for Gaza, US State Department deputy spokesperson Vedant Patel said on Monday, adding that humanitarian assistance into the enclave should not be impeded.
Right-wing protesters have repeatedly blocked aid trucks headed for Gaza in recent months, including in recent incidents in Jerusalem, Mitzpe Ramon, and the West Bank.

The group has been doing this for several months. Israel had to divert trucks from this particular crossing (Kerem Shalom) due to the attacks. Unfortunately, after Israel closed the Rafah crossing, all the aide traffic went to this (Kerem Shalom) crossing. So, this group has ramped up the attacks in the past week.

Israel is more diverse than America. Nobody is denying that right-wingers are skidmarks...

They need to throw these kooks in jail. They're literally interfering with the military

It's not genocide and every time you deliberately misuse that term, it denegrates actual genocide. Stop it.

What's the evidence that this is in any way connected to the OP? Be careful of disinformation.

It's part of larger type Israeli "go fund me" type site. Many are legit charities, but this one should not be in the US

Even if I agreed with that logic, which I don't, it's still not something they should be doing

Again, I know who that is, and being Jewish isn't the explanation for their extremist views...
