Chef José Andrés: Food Is Not A Weapon Of War

Stephen Colbert comments on the IDF airstrike that killed 7 volunteers from World Central Kitchen in Gaza, and quotes the organization’s founder Chef José Andrés who said plainly, “food is not a weapon of war.” If you would like to support World Central Kitchen in their nonpartisan mission to feed hungry people around the world, consider making a donation at wck.org.

[@dbrent4970]

I don't claim to know all the intricacies of the conflict but as veteran who worked in intelligence... you DO NOT hit 3 separate vehicles that far apart in a coordinated surgical strike without preplanning. Those vehicles were watched and tracked long before the weapons were deployed. They knew who they were murdering.

[@ryane6886]

Yeah, I think the Israeli government has even said they'd been watching these vehicles for a long while. They said they saw some gunmen around/on some of the vehicles. However they have chosen not to provide any proof that a gunman was in any vehicle. I do wonder if the WCK logo was visible, given it was night time. But the fact that they literally called and told the Israelis where they were, and then tried to deconflict again after the first hit is very concerning. The fact that they were westerners with a prominent celebrity chef's organization is why we even heard about it. What if it was just another Arab based aid organization? No westerners in it? So sad.

[@SRH874]

It took the lives of these brave western aid workers for mainstream media to speak about Gaza. Over 40,000 Palestinians have been killed, half of these are children. 100,000 maimed and injured, thousands still buried under the rubble, and over a million on the brink of famine. This isn't just what happens in war. It is the biggest mass slaughter event of the 21st century. Please keep continue speaking up Stephen. The world needs voices like yours.

[@erifur]

Absolutely. I initially thought this incident is just a another horrific "detail" among much greater crimes that are silenced by Western media... if those aid workers can be a trigger for more attention to the crime that are happening it is at least a consolation to their unnecessary passing.

To hit the first one, chase down any survivors to the second vehicle up the road and take _that_ one out, and then chase down any survivors from that to the third vehicle a half mile even further ahead and take _them_ out...by no means is any of that an accident. IDF had been thoroughly notified of what the movements of World Central Kitchen would be that day and time. World Central Kitchen had co-ordinated their movements with the IDF so there would be no doubt as to where they would be at any given time, or as to whose vehicles (clearly marked to be seen from above as World Central Kitchen) IDF were seeing at that particular spot and time. IDF knew exactly who they were striking. As for the apology and firings? Performance art.

This whole thing was engineered by Netanyahu, who has openly supported Hamas for years in order to divide and conquer the Palestinians and make it look like they’re all terrorists who deserve starvation, and those who help them are enemies of Israel (forgetting that these aid workers were also on the ground in Israel after October 7.) Not only is Bibi destroying his own country and committing genocide to save his own skin, he’s also destroying ours, since he’s putting Biden in an impossible position and determined to make our election about Israel. I understand the tremendous pressure Biden is under; it’s not his fault that even the president is less powerful than the military industrial complex and the geopolitical forces making it very difficult to defy Israel.

This is yet another reason that Netanyahu should be in the Hague. Under his command, the IDF has constantly and repeatedly hit civilian targets, and always blamed it on Hamas. "Oh Hamas were hiding in that hospital" "That school was really a Hamas HQ" "Those reporters were really Hamas sympathisers" "Those aid workers were really moving Hamas supplies around" and so on. The IDF have been specifically targeting Reporters and Aid workers since they began this phase of the genocide. There are many hundreds of Reporters and Aid workers who have been killed without cause or reason by the IDF and we all know why. Netanyahu wants to finish his genocide so that he can take over all the land without those awkward people who live there getting in the way. It's what he has been doing for YEARS now, and he has dragged Israel over to the very place where the Nazis were in the 30's, attempting to wipe out an entire race of human beings because of petty hatreds. Yes, the situation isn't as clean cut as that over there, but he has been purposefully making things exponentially worse by his own actions, and so that he can justify his genocidal orders. The Hague is where he belongs, along with the generals and other politicians there who are pushing the same way. There is NO justification for the extreme actions of the IDF in this conflict, or before.
