7. It was designed to do exactly what it is doing.

Starting with banning the UN, reducing the number of aid hubs by 99% and continuing with every other negation of humanitaran principles especially the militarization of aid in the hands of the occupying army.

Everything the UN warned about has come true. But instead of admitting GHF is a total failure and a humanitarian catastrophe has unfolded - and allowing the UN to take over and save lives - I'm sure there are people very much celebrating its "success".

Because GHF was never more than another tool, a very important one, in the ethnic cleansing toolbox.
