     @dneary I am not going to argue with you about how shooting 100 starving people may or may not be OK.

     @evan They were not waiting for aid, crowds of starving Gazans stormed the trucks and some IDF soldiers panicked and started shooting into the crowd. 🤬

     @evan I was *trying* to make the point that "waiting for aid" sounds passive, while "starving people clamour to get food from aid trucks" makes it clear that this was not an orderly queue, but a population who are being starved by an occupier.

     @evan On the contrary, I was agreeing with you entirely. A population, starving, sees food arriving, and the deliverers open fire... I am disgusted.
