Deliberate Starvation in Gaza Must End 7/29/2025

                                Deliberate Starvation in Gaza Must End

The latest report from the Global Hunger Monitor confirms what many feared: Israel’s siege on Gaza has created the “worst-case scenario of famine.” After months of blocking food, fuel, and humanitarian aid, Gaza is now experiencing full-scale starvation, with children and infants dying from hunger and dehydration. The report warns that malnutrition and hunger-related diseases are rising at catastrophic levels, especially in the north, where Israel has made it nearly impossible for aid convoys to reach.
This is not a tragedy caused by drought or natural disaster—it is a man-made famine. The deliberate use of starvation as a weapon of war is a grave violation of international law, amounting to a war crime. Gaza’s population, more than half of whom are children, is being systematically denied the means to survive.
The U.S., by continuing to fund and arm the Israeli military, is complicit in this horror. Silence from our leaders is not neutrality—it is endorsement. It is time to stop the flow of weapons and instead demand that Israel immediately lift its blockade and allow unrestricted humanitarian access.
This isn’t just a moral imperative—it’s a legal and historical one. Future generations will judge us for whether we stood by during a famine created by bombs and bureaucracy.
