Starving Gaza: A Humanitarian Shame
Mass murder and starvation are being carried out with our tax dollars. Since 1948, the U.S. has provided billions in aid to Israel—support that now enables mass killings and engineered famine in Gaza. This is a moral travesty that shatters any claim we make of upholding international law or promoting global stability.Palestinians, like all people, have an equal right to live in peace. Yet they are being denied food, water, and safety. Foreign reporters are being blocked from entering Gaza, while Palestinians—desperate for basic aid—are being shot by Israeli forces near distribution centers. Al Jazeera reports that at least 41 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli strikes since midnight, including those seeking food. Meanwhile, new displacement orders leave families with nowhere to go. As one resident, Matar Azak, pleaded, “We prefer to die where we are, rather than leave the north of the Strip for the south.”
Adding insult to injury, the Trump administration has approved $30 million in funding for the so-called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation—an opaque, U.S.- and Israeli-backed operation run by private firms with ties to intelligence and military elites. This system enriches American contractors while trapping Palestinians in a deadly game of hunger and fear.
How long will we fund and justify this cruelty? It is time to recognize the sanctity of all life—and demand a future grounded in justice, not militarized greed.
