An article by Richard Goldberg, published on November 20, 2023, in the New York Post, presents serious allegations about the role of international organizations in concealing Hamas' use of Shifa Hospital in Gaza City for terror operations. 

 

Key points

1. Discovery of Terror Tunnel: The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) discovery of a large terror tunnel beneath Shifa Hospital, extending 10 meters down and 55 meters across, with a possibly booby-trapped ballistic proof door. This tunnel, along with video evidence of Hamas moving Israeli hostages inside the hospital, are the latest pieces of evidence to indicates that Hamas used the hospital as a base for terror operations.

2. Allegations of International Complicity: The article raises concerns about the possible complicity of international organizations funded by the United States, such as the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and the World Health Organization (WHO), in concealing these activities, allegations that are based on the actions and statements of these organizations following the discovery of the tunnel and the hostages.

3. ICRC and WHO Involvement: Fabrizio Carboni, the Middle East regional director for the ICRC, is accused of spreading disinformation about the situation in Gaza hospitals. Similarly, the WHO is alleged to have pressured Israel to avoid Shifa Hospital, claiming it was non-functional and that innocent patients were dying.

4. U.S. Funding and Accountability: The article highlights the significant funding these organizations receive from the United States and calls for congressional investigation and potential withholding of U.S. funding until reforms are implemented to prevent complicity in terrorist war crimes.

5. Broader Context: The article fits into a larger narrative about the complexities of international aid, the laws of war, and the challenges of operating in conflict zones like Gaza, where the delineation between military and civilian infrastructure can be blurred.

Goldberg's article emphasizes the need for accountability and transparency in international aid operations, especially in conflict zones. The allegations, if proven, raise significant ethical and legal questions about the conduct of international organizations in war zones.
