The REAL Reason Gaza is STARVING - EX-UN Chief Drops BOMBSHELL
I will NOT forgive this. EVER.
Summary by Noiz https://noiz.io
Accusations of Genocide
🚫Israel's humanitarian aid distribution scheme in Gaza is a "genocide humanitarian fig leaf" that nourishes and nurtures militants to shoot Palestinians attempting to collect food aid.
💀The Israeli army has been starving Palestinians to death for 17 years, forcing them into agricultural pens and shooting them when they try to access food aid.
Humanitarian Crisis
🥫Israel's aid distribution system in Gaza is deliberately ineffective, creating a situation where desperate civilians are shot while trying to obtain food.
🚧The blockade of Gaza has resulted in a man-made humanitarian catastrophe, with Israel controlling all aspects of Palestinian life, including food, water, and electricity.
International Response
🌐The international community's failure to hold Israel accountable for its actions in Gaza amounts to complicity in genocide.
🏛️There is a need for immediate international intervention and legal action against Israel for its systematic starvation and targeting of civilians in Gaza.

Gaza makes me marvel at human beings ability to give up our humanity in the pursuit of revenge. The fact that my country is bankrolling this madness leaves me heart sick. Young people in our country see this for what it is. Being disgusted by the political state of Israel is not antisemitism, its called acknowledging our common humanity

(564 posts)should be at the top of the list at the Hague for International war crimes, and crimes against humanity...........
Putin and Assad should be next in line for their Geneva Convention War Crime violations. Russia supplied Chemical Weapon Bombs, and Assad dropped them on his own Syrian people........
Maybe then, they could go after Trump........
I have to tell you, the most worrisome thing to me, is THREE of the World's Top Psychopaths, being in control of an un-fathomable amount of Nuclear Weapons.........Putin, Trump, Netanyahu......enough to destroy the entire world population a thousand times over..............
Putin didn't want to use a nuclear weapon on Ukraine, so he did the next best thing, he launched a drone at the new sarcophagus that Ukraine had built, encapsulating the Chernobyl reactor, punching a large hole in it, so the massive cover no longer offers protection against nuclear radiation escaping......Cute,....huh!

(570 posts)look at the clampdown on US universities. Entire departments, especially Middle East studies, being closed down. Professors, to include Jewish ones, being fired for not towing the AIPAC line. And, as you point out, madmen controlling nuclear weapons. These times are terrifying

(3,776 posts)It can open people's eyes to the breadth of rhe deception and manipulation we've been subject to.
As just one example of some great insight, how the whole fear of being labelled anti-semitic, fear of the Israel lobby, as well as guilt about the Holocaust played a role in the inaction of our governments and politicians, giving impunity to Israel to commit the worst cruelty we have seen in our lifetimes.
So when people ask how we could let this happen, this would be a good answer. Ironically even giving this answer causes anxiety for some, including me in the past, proving the argument. When I see numerous recent posts prefacing valid criticism of the starvation for example with "I am not anti-semitic" - I am saddened they feel the need to say the obvious and fall into that trap. Once you start in a defensive position...But I understand why. I used to do it too until I wised up.
Really great video, hope many take the time to view it.
Thanks!
