The siege is by Israel.

Bibi wants money, but wants roadblocks to getting Palestinians aid. Omnipresent Wednesday #1
I'd think Palestinian leadership should be questioned jimfields33 Wednesday #2
Can they hear the questions around the explosions and ambulance sirens? Omnipresent Wednesday #3
Yes they can. Even from Turkey, or Qatar, or from wherever they are hiding. Beastly Boy Wednesday #24

I am trying to answer your question. Beastly Boy Wednesday #57
You can't send in aid from the West Bank without getting past the Israeli soldiers muriel_volestrangler Wednesday #4
The convoys are getting past Israeli soldiers allright! They are being left undelivered and looted Beastly Boy Wednesday #27
Except that is not what news reports say. For instance, the one in the OP. (nt) muriel_volestrangler Wednesday #31

Trucks are often blocked at border womanofthehills Wednesday #10
Hamas is just terrible. jimfields33 Wednesday #11
But you fail to mention Israel drones womanofthehills Wednesday #16
Israel is supplying the food. Would be weird for them to destroy it. jimfields33 Wednesday #19
Israel doesn't supply the food. The UN does. NGOs do. Israel then decides if they block it or not. muriel_volestrangler Wednesday #22
It is not Hamas, it is criminal gangs looting right under the IDF's noses. AloeVera Wednesday #23
Yes, more questions. Imagine IDF interfering with the looting in any way. Beastly Boy Wednesday #39
So they shoot at Palestinian policemen trying to prevent the looting instead? N/T. AloeVera Wednesday #40
Yes. Yes they do. Look up the rules governing enemy combatants in the Geneva Conventions. Beastly Boy Wednesday #45
I don't think the 2 sides went to the aid trucks hand-in-hand. AloeVera Wednesday #48
Regardless of what you think, Beastly Boy Wednesday #50

Wow! And you read this where? womanofthehills Wednesday #17
Still doesn't excuse the Palestinian government from negligence. jimfields33 Wednesday #20
It's criminal gangs allowed to loot by the IDF. AloeVera Wednesday #38
