Gaza and jihadists

After two weeks of constant bombing by the Israelis into Gaza, the United Nations Security Commission is finally making a decision. I wonder why the world helplessly stands by watching the massacre of thousands of Palestinians.
What the Israelis are doing is pure genocide. Humanitarian assistance distributed to the Palestinians by the UN aid workers is now being halted due to the fact that even aid workers are being butchered.
The UN must act now instead of wasting days and days of talking behind closed doors without making any clear decisions. In the meantime thousands of Palestinians are suffering without medical attention, food or water.
Indonesian Jihadists who wish to join their Palestinian brothers in Gaza should think twice. Who will provide logistics for them?* Although it is very noble of them, they should not become a liability to the Palestinians.*
There is a lack of food and water and medical attention; moreover, they will have to face the best professional army in the world, with a more sophisticated arsenal of weapons that any other country. I wish them the best of luck.
