The queen, a longtime critic of the Jewish state, claimed that Israel has cut off "everything that is required to sustain a human life" since the war started, including food, fuel, housing, medication, and water.
She claimed that because of Israel's attacks and shooting of Gazans who attempt to receive relief, "it has left the people of Gaza completely reliant on outside assistance."
She stated, "This has been a mass murder of children, done in slow motion." "This is a tragedy created by Israelis" and "deprivation by design."
“I think the time for trying to persuade Israel to do the right thing has long passed,” she said. She called Israel’s war against the Hamas terror group “one of the greatest historical injustices.” “This conflict did not begin on Oct. 7,” she said. “It was the result of years of occupation, of settlement expansion, of human rights abuses, of disregard for international law—and this is what led us to this point.”
“I would say that as devastating and as traumatic as Oct. 7th was, it doesn’t give Israel license to commit atrocity after atrocity. Israel experienced on Oct. 7th. Since then Palestinians have experienced 156 Oct. 7ths,” she added. “They have been going through this every day.”
