Death Traps and War Crimes in Gaza Demand Accountability
A former U.S. Green Beret who helped establish and secure humanitarian food distribution sites in Gaza has come forward with damning testimony. He describes the so-called “deconflicted” aid sites—ostensibly agreed upon by Israeli and U.S. officials—as death traps, repeatedly targeted by Israeli forces even after coordinates were shared and confirmed. His account corroborates what many humanitarian groups and Palestinians have long said: that Israel is not only blocking aid but actively turning aid distribution into a pretext for mass killing.The former Special Forces officer, who worked for the nonprofit Fogbow, confirms that sites delivering food were repeatedly struck by drones and artillery fire, killing aid workers, civilians, and even children seeking food. He asserts that these were not accidents, but deliberate attacks in violation of international law. He labels Israel’s conduct as “systematic war crimes,” stating bluntly, “This is not war. It’s extermination.”
The silence from U.S. leadership is deafening. Our tax dollars are funding these atrocities. If even a former Green Beret—trained in war and counterinsurgency—finds these actions indefensible, what justification can President Trump, Congress, or the Pentagon offer?
The United States must immediately stop arming Israel and support an independent war crimes investigation. Anything less is complicity in mass
