"The High Representative".. not SO high!

The least that can be said is that since the appointment of the Bulgarian Nikolay Mladenov as "High Representative" and governor of the Gaza Strip, the man assigned to a colonial mission has remained silent on the daily violations in the Strip, and the only time he spoke... he lied. He claimed that the trucks entering the Strip reached 600 trucks daily; a statement that did not need official denial, as the visible scenes in the markets took care of the task, with a severe shortage of supplies and rising prices of available ones, scarcity of water, and international organizations announcing their withdrawal from their missions according to "World Food Programme" and "World Central Kitchen" statements, amidst a serious deterioration in food security. Criticizing the Bulgarian representative does not exempt the Palestinian head of the committee, Dr. Ali Shaath, and all members, from the national responsibility they were assigned to alleviate the suffering of their people in the Strip, which is afflicted by fear, hunger, and a lack of money, lives, and fruits. We know them, president and members, by their patriotism and keenness, and that some of them endured chapters of genocide and lost loved ones, and we know that some of them have already resigned, or were prevented from objecting to policies and plans, but the "dictates of the representative" should not silence their voices. They are not just employees, but rather delegates for the mission of saving a people who are dying daily. Where are the promises the committee made to itself? Foremost among them is the introduction of "caravans" that would ensure a dignified temporary life for the displaced until reconstruction, as stated by its head at the beginning of his tenure, and that the national committee would be the link that restores the nation's unity and dignity. Gaza does not need fictitious numbers written in international reports to beautify the face of the "new mandate," but rather needs a reality that the hungry can feel in a loaf of bread, a sip of water, a pill of medicine, baby milk, and a safe tent from mobile death. Silence in the face of hunger is participation in it.
