At least 57 Palestinians have starved to death in Gaza as Israel’s punishing blockade of food, water, and other critical aid to the besieged enclave stretches into its third month amid relentless bombardment.
Gaza’s Government Media Office said on Saturday that most of the victims were children, as well as the sick and elderly, condemning the “continued use of food by the Israeli occupation as a weapon of war” and urging the international community to exert pressure on Israel to reopen the borders and allow in aid.
This framing kind of sucks, but it’s close.
It’s still a land grab, and they’re actively grabbing land in the west bank, in Lebanon, and in Syria.
They’re fascists that have purposefully fomented this violence as the apartheid state. They want the land and some justification they can wave around. This is why Oct 7th exists.
The irony is, the more successful they are in their depraved violence and theft, the more they will become a pariah globally. I can’t see the future, but this feels like a fascist death spiral that will end Israel.
I understand.
It’s the same human drama that’s been played out since the dawn of time. The powerful dominated the weak, and helpless.
We deserve our extinction when our sun goes red giant, but it’ll happen much sooner than that.
We’re an irredeemable species.
It is not the same human drama. Most of war and expansion focuses on different goals and usually driven by a single leader. This an organization that extend beyond a single entity. They take your tax money and they use it to fund their project.
