But what if the case was the opposite and all those starving, dying children were Israelis?
What would the international community do? I bet they would already be inside the territory feeding them all. Those hypocrytes!

Palestinian women were told some GHF centres were safe for women only.
Instead, they were pepper-sprayed, beaten with batons & shot at. Eyewitnesses say a pregnant woman was assaulted until she collapsed. 2 women were murdered.
GHF aid centres deliver humiliation, violence & death.

UNRWA: "In #Gaza, malnutrition is no longer a risk — it has become a tragic and widespread reality”.
An UNRWA doctor describes how they now see severely malnourished children everyday.
“The situation has worsened dramatically since the total blockade imposed in March 2025.”
The siege must be lifted.

Actor, activist and 'Handala' crew member Jacob Berger reflects on the urgency of the Flotilla's mission to deliver life-saving aid to the Palestinian people of #Gaza.
He affirms the importance of taking part in this mission as a Jewish American as a vital act of dissent, and hopes that the #Flotilla will inspire more people to take direct action.

Horrifying statistics were reported by the Director of Medical Relief in #Gaza, as the number of children suffering from malnutrition continues to rise and hospitals deplete their stock of medical supplies.
Meanwhile, the Israeli occupation continues to close the crossings and prevent the entry of aid into Gaza for several months.

The Director of Medical Relief in Gaza to Al Jazeera:
- The health situation deteriorates day by day & we are in the fifth stage of famine
- If medicines & medical supplies are not introduced immediately, the mortality rate will accelerate
- There is no food or drink & during the past 5 months, no aid has been introduced
- 17,000 children suffer from severe malnutrition

I sent this as a letter to the editor to a paper in a city in NC, USA - it isn't getting published - so here it is.
Israel has tried brutally to make the Palestinian population it occupies disappear for as long as it has existed. The last few weeks have been a blur of agonizing sadness to anyone with a conscience--especially those of us with relatives there whose tax dollars are buying their mass murder. Children are eating sand because they've run out of animal feed. A reporter collapsed on air from hunger. A man filming Gaza's coast was murdered by Israel, blood dripping toward the camera. Israel bombed a Kindergarten yesterday. Again. Food is sitting in UNRWA warehouses at the border. Not a morsel--not even baby formula--is allowed in. Shame on this cruel world and all who enable occupation, apartheid and this calculated genocide, this forced starvation: Israel, Arab leaders, the EU, the US, Republicans, Democrats, me, you, God--everyone.
It's time to unite behind a UN mandated protective force in Gaza:

It is so odd how people suddenly have a fierce allegiance to the facts when I mention Israeli war crimes.
[Context is people on social media saying Israel was justified "responding to" Oct 7, but shouldn't starve people - and celebrities who initially came out in support of besieged Palestinians only to fold to Zionist (or false objectivity) pressure and declare that both sides need to do x.]
Sure, go ahead and state that Hamas has committed war crimes also. It's the truth, right? But the problem is that it isn't the whole truth; it's a lie by omission. And saying both sides don't want peace anytime soon absolves you of any responsibly to DO ANYTHING--even think about it. Not only is this insensitive and intellectually lazy, it is false.
The occupied and the occupier are not both committing war crimes such that you can throw up your hands and dismiss them like fighting children. That is lazy. And now deadly. Israel has been ethnically cleansing Palestine since Zionism arrived in the 1800s. This was always the plan. Their leaflets said it in 1948 and their lawmakers say it now. Since 2007, Israel has allowed in only enough calories through checkpoints so that they survive but not thrive-- they counted the calories like the sadistic Nazis they are. This kept Palestinians on the knife's edge of total annihilation. Israel only needed a pretext and a friendly or bumbling US president (which could be either a Democrat or Republican! Both have been spineless and Zionist).
So you can go on and on about Israeli hostages and October 7 and how both peoples need to accept the existence of the other, but while it may make you feel better (objective, smart, reasonable, unbiased) in some way, none of this would be happening if Israel initially let refugees back home as they were required for admission to the UN and they lived with Palestinians in peace with self-determination and equal rights for all. Israel instead wanted a white supremacist ethnostate without Palestinians (land without a people for people without a land) and was handed that template by the British--Israel kept committing the same war crimes that the British had done to the Irish and in every other place it stole and/or or occupied.
There wouldn't be occupation or Hamas or bombings or starvation (of one people) or any of it if it wasn't for Israel's ethnic cleansing and decades US complicity and funding. We, American citizens, are responsible. No one will hold Israel accountable. Like no one held Democrats accountable and forced them to be anti-genocide so that we could be a force for good rather than death. Every time there is an opportunity to stop the atrocities, people push Palestinians under the tank treads and claim they didn't know or could do anything else.

"Terwijl de Europese Unie medeplichtig blijft aan de genocide in Gaza, geeft een groep van twaalf landen uit het mondiale Zuiden wél het goede voorbeeld met een pakket concrete acties tegen Israël.
Het gaat om Colombia, Bolivia, Cuba, Indonesië, Maleisië, Namibië, Zuid-Afrika, Libië, Oman, Irak, Saint Vincent en de Grenadines, en Nicaragua. Ze kondigden zes acties aan, waaronder een volledig wapenembargo."
