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.
We put it in black and white to Democratic candidates: you can choose to support Israel or you can choose to win this election. But you only get one. Make it a binary choice and see how they respond.
If they choose to support Israel, then we need to shift to a 3rd party en masse. Make it clear that we will circumvent them if they don’t change their position.
