american contractors working in gaza for some reason occasionally have reservations;
Another American contractor has reportedly come forward with horror stories about his time working for the Global Humanitarian Foundation, the outfit responsible for food distribution in Gaza.
The operation has been likened to the "Hunger Games" as the Israeli military has been accused of shooting and killing hundreds of Palestinians, reportedly for not straying out of the lines and other supposed transgressions, if for any reason at all, as they scramble and claw their way desperately for food.
U.S. security contractors hired to work with GHF have been accused of joining in with the lethal and non-lethal crowd control, with reports of live ammunition, stun grenades, and the use of pepper spray. Last week at least 20 were killed in a stampede; the UN says over 1,050 people have been killed trying to get to food since May, over 700 of them at these increasingly violent aid centers.
Last month two contractors from UG Solutions, one of the U.S.-based companies (the other is Safe Reach Solutions), told the Associated Press that fellow Americans were shooting into the crowds with live ammo. Now another has come forward. He claims to be a military veteran who has deployed to multiple conflict zones but “never in my entire military career... have I been a part of, allowed...the use of force against unarmed innocent civilians. Ever. And I’m not going to do it now."..........more...........
