More organizations, particularly Canadian and U.S. based humanitarian aid orgs, charities and doctors associations need to make statements like this.

Many did already and did so regarding many aspects of the Israeli occupation, like imprisonment without access to legal counsel or charges, non persecuted murders and forced displacement by "settlers" supported by the IDF and many more aspects of blatant human rights violation.

But the western governments close their eyes, put their fingers in the ears and scream "LALALALALA" whenever pressed on the topic.
