Israeli analyst Ofer Shelah - Channel 12 The Israeli aid distribution plan is part of a comprehensive vision: occupy the Strip, control the land, and push the Gazan population into a narrow area under unbearable humanitarian conditions. Bring in civilian bodies for whose actions Israel will bear full responsibility, and when they fail—and they will fail—the military will take their place, because no Palestinian or other Arab party will be qualified to do so. Then comes the encouragement of immigration, and finally, full occupation and settlement.
