In the days before and after his remarks, Israeli forces killed Palestinians through drone strikes and gunfire. Prabowo’s claim rests on a shameless distortion: that humanitarian aid equals reduced suffering. And while Prabowo praised humanitarian aid, Israel was actively destroying the humanitarian system itself. Celebrating humanitarian aid while ignoring the demolition of the agencies delivering it is not ignorance; it is deliberate deception. It is the management of Palestinian suffering so the world can look away.
