The Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba will no longer allow Palestinian shoppers to make purchases on AliExpress.com, according to a text message that many buyers received from the company on Monday.
The reason for the move is that the Palestinian Authority's mail services refuse to handle packages that have the word Israel in the address. Many Palestinians do not know this and write Israel rather than Palestine as the destination country, according to N12.
Some Palestinians address deliveries to themselves saying "Israel," and - in the bizarre logic of the Palestinian leadership - they must be punished by not getting the goods they paid for!
Gee, the Palestinian Authority really cares about the people who live under its control.
The thing is, this is normal for the PA.
The PA could have worked with Israel to get Covid-19 vaccines, but they refused - because, Israel.
The PA tried to forbid Palestinians from shopping at convenient and affordable Israeli supermarkets in the territories - because, Israel.
The PA rejected a state multiple times - because, Israel.
I would be very surprised if Israel would refuse to deliver a package with the proper postal code addressed to someone in "Lydda, Palestine." Because post office delivery services are not the place to play stupid political games.
Any real leader would instinctively know that.
But the entire purpose of the Palestinian Authority was never to provide a safe place for Palestinian Arabs to live. It was never to serve the people. The raison d'etre of the PA is to be a means to destroy the Jewish state. Hating Israel and the Jews is more important than helping their own people.
The Palestinian Authority proves, every day, with its own actions, that it cannot and should not ever be responsible for the lives of the people it pretends to lead.
