Oh of course, still I'm sure they just trained it on a map and told it to bomb the shit out of Gaza

That's how they did the non-targeted (carpet) bombings. These were three guided, precision strikes on a group that pre-cleared their travel arrangements on a specific route at a specific time with the IDF in advance, even targeting vehicles with WCK logos specifically marked on top. The outcome is exactly what they wanted: no food aid to Gaza at all.

Now they just have to pretend to have a study and bury the topic for a year or whatever like they do with every other atrocity when speaking internationally, which the media will take at face value even though officials and IDF members have been well-documented, calling for Palestinian people to be wiped out, their restrictions on aid have always been horrific and absurd, and settlers were blockading aid trucks with "raves" to prevent aid getting in.

Western nations will sanction any other country for a fraction of what Israel has done, but instead it seems our leaders are content to let this play out and gradually push more and more for the replacement of the prime minister with someone just as bad or worse when it's all over, for an optics upgrade (since the Netanyahu "brand" is burnt now).
