“Israel is in non-stop war crime status, in genocidal status, without shame, without remorse, without truth... This is a murderous gang in government. They are zealots. They are not going to stop.” —Prof. Jeffrey Sachs
Israel is a nation that gleefully murders children. It needs to be treated as a pariah state - banned from all international forum and events. At least 32 Palestinians killed in Gaza as IDF fires on crowds seeking food | Gaza | The Guardian theguardian.com/world/2025/jul…
This should be leading every news bulletin. 1 million children in #Gaza being starved to death in front of our eyes. The evidence is unequivocal @abcnews @MattDoran91
The Israeli Authorities are starving civilians in #Gaza. Among them are 1 million children. Lift the siege: allow UNRWA to bring in food and medicines.
