Israel uses hunger in the genocide in Gaza

Israel’s war against Hamas is a genocide against the Palestinians. The world community must react strongly to Israel’s genocide, supported by the US. The use of starvation as a weapon against civilians is illegal and unethical. The problem for the international community is that there are no suitable international bodies that can stop the genocide. In the UN Security Council, the US has veto power. All attempts by the Security Council are stopped by the US veto.
Genocide as a means of annexing Gaza
Israel’s pretext for continuing to send far too little food into the area is to crush Hamas. Regardless of whether Israel wants to crush Hamas politically and militarily, it will probably never succeed. The hatred among Palestinians towards Israel will probably increase even more.
Israel is trying to expel Palestinians from Gaza. Israel and the US want neighboring countries to take in hundreds of thousands of Palestinian refugees. Trump previously spoke warmly about this and talked about creating a Palestinian Riviera. Feel free to read my blog about this. It would suit Trump and his hotel chain. It will not serve any Palestinians. The people of Gaza are suffering from Israel and US imperialism.
Support for Palestine increases
Israel is losing sympathy around the world. France will recognize Palestine as a separate state soon. Norway, Ireland and Spain did so recently. More and more of Israel’s former supporters are reacting strongly to the genocide in Gaza. More and more of them are likely to recognize Palestine as an independent country.
All these countries want a two-state solution. A solution in which Palestine and Israel can live within clearly defined areas and in which both parties recognize the other’s right to exist. For Israel, there is a solution. This solution is the annihilation of Palestinians. All means are used with the blessing of the USA. Hunger as a weapon is simple. The Jews themselves were subjected to Hitler’s attempts at annihilation. Israel must be aware of its own history and not be the one to wipe out another people group. The genocide in Gaza must stop. The responsibility lies with Israel and the USA.
