"Every country was put on notice by the ICJ that there was a plausible risk of genocide in Gaza.. every country became obliged under the law.. not to speak fine words, to take action to prevent genocide.. that obligation was activated on 24th Jan 2024" Chris Sidoti spells it out

Israel planned this for decades, bit by bit, kompromat by kompromat, Friend of Israel by Friend of Israel donation. Lie and hasbara by lie and hasbara. They gambled that it would be too late to save thousands and thousands from their death. They were right. It is too late.
“Not all Jews are Zionists” - no “war” simply began on October 7th as Irish academics have claimed. Really thoughtful piece that will especially resonate with Irish families who have direct, lived experience of Nazi Germany www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/comm...

DO EVERYTHING YOU CAN TO GET FOOD AND WATER IN TO GAZA. This is from Lemkin Institute begging..... we are all begging.
The decision (to walk away) “in no way reflects a lack of commitment to climate action” I’m increasingly amazed by the neck of some PR people who will tell outright lies with a straight face. on.ft.com/4f7tqYm

"There is no case since WW2 of starvation that has been so minutely designed and controlled" Famine expert Alex de Waal on Israel deliberately starving an entire civilian population
'Palestine is a mirror held up to the world’s moral and political failures' - Francesca Albanese www.ohchr.org/en/press-rel... #gazaisstarving #gazagenocide
“a deliberate, systematic starvation of an entire population” A statement by Doctors Against Genocide. #Gaza
Gaza is being deliberately starved to death in front of the whole world, and the only people being arrested over it are those who opposed the crime.
“ 'I’ve been searching for something to feed my children but there is nothing.' Daily 🆘 messages are coming in from our starving UNRWA colleagues, every day. Food is available only a few kilometers away. Inaction is complicity and makes us lose our humanity." - UNRWA Commissioner-General
We are receiving desperate messages of starvation from #Gaza, including from our colleagues. Food prices have increased 40 fold. UNRWA has enough food for the entire population for over three months, stockpiled just outside Gaza. Lift the siege and let aid in safely and at scale.
