The level of these monsters is shocking, unbelievable. They are going to charge fees just to allow humanitarian aid through.

«According to sources, the document speaks of the need for a “prime contractor” capable of sending 600 humanitarian and commercial trucks into Gaza every day. It also suggests charging a fee of $2,000 for every humanitarian aid shipment and $12,000 for commercial trucks.

By operating as a concessionary entity, the document says, the contractor could “earn a fair return” from the humanitarian and commercial trucks entering Gaza. If the “prime contractor” acts quickly, it could generate gross revenues of $1.7 billion per year solely from road transport fees.» (Source: Los Angeles Press)

I am feeling terrible about this. I don't know what to do beyond the useless words I can say in an extreme case like this. It is horrible.
