Starving Gaza: How Silence Is Enabling a Genocide in Real Time

Gaza: Starving a Nation in Broad Daylight — and the World Must Act Now

Seven weeks.
Zero aid.
Two million lives on the brink.

Gaza is not just suffering — it is being starved. Deliberately.
In full view of the world, an entire population is being pushed into famine, death, and despair.

No humanitarian aid or commercial supplies have entered Gaza for over seven agonizing weeks.
This is now the longest closure the Gaza Strip has ever faced — a man-made catastrophe unfolding before our eyes.

The evidence is clear and horrifying:

All 25 WFP-supported bakeries in Gaza have been forced to shut down. No wheat. No fuel. No bread.
WFP food parcels — intended to last two weeks — have been completely exhausted.
Safe drinking water has run dry, leaving families to scavenge scraps to burn just to cook a basic meal.
Food prices have exploded by up to 1,400%.
Hospitals are collapsing without medicine, electricity, or clean water.

And yet, just beyond Gaza’s sealed borders, hope sits idle:
More than 116,000 metric tons of food aid, enough to feed a million people for four months, are ready.
Nearly 3,000 aid trucks, packed and prepared by the United Nations and humanitarian partners, are waiting.
Waiting — because Israel refuses to let them in.

This is not an unfortunate side effect of war.
This is not collateral damage.
This is intentional, calculated starvation.

"Hunger is spreading and deepening — deliberate and man-made," says UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini.
"Gaza has become a land of desperation… humanitarian aid is being used as a bargaining chip and a weapon of war."

Two million human beings — overwhelmingly women and children — are being subjected to collective punishment.
A mass atrocity is unfolding in real time, and the world’s silence is becoming complicity.

A Final Warning: Time Is Running Out

To the people of Europe, America, Asia, Africa, and beyond:

This is not just another tragedy.
This is a slow-motion extermination — and the window to save lives is closing fast.

Even if the borders were opened tomorrow, many in Gaza have now reached such critical malnutrition levels that full refeeding could kill them.
Refeeding syndrome — a fatal reaction when severely starved bodies are suddenly given normal amounts of food — will claim countless lives if urgent, careful intervention does not happen immediately.

In other words:

If we do not act now, even unlimited food aid later may come too late.

The Time for Action Is Not Tomorrow — It’s Now

To the people of conscience across the world:

You have the power to act.

You have the power to speak.

You have the power to demand:

That the siege be lifted immediately.
That humanitarian aid flows freely, without conditions.
That the collective punishment of civilians ends once and for all.

Governments are choosing silence, calculation, and delay.
But your voice, your outrage, your action can break that silence.

This is not a call for charity.
This is a call for basic humanity.
For the right of a child to eat.
For the right of a mother to soothe her hungry baby with something more than empty hands.

History will not ask what you thought.
It will ask what you did — or did not do — when Gaza cried out for help.

Do not wait for the mass graves.
Do not wait for history books to write another chapter of shame.

Rise now. Protest. Share. Pressure. Donate. Amplify.

Because for Gaza’s starving children, there is no more time to lose.

Famine by design, Silence by Choice: 90,000 children are dying and still the UN can't find it's Spine.

✍️ By Malik Mukhtar | July 22, 2025 📍 From the graveyard of global morality: Gaza Let’s be clear. If a three-month-old baby named Yehia dies of starvation in his mother’s arms at Nasser Hospital, that should be enough for the world to say: “Enough.” But in today’s U.N., apparently 90,000 malnourished children, daily starvation deaths, and food rotting at the Gaza border still don’t meet the “technical ” threshold for famine . Welcome to the age of data-driven genocide , where unless a corpse is tagged with the right IPC Level 5 barcode , it's not really dead enough to matter. 📉 No Data? No Problem. Just Ignore the Bones. Let’s break this down. The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) — a bureaucratic tool forged in the fires of humanitarian intention — tells us that famine exists when: 20% of households face extreme food shortage, Acute malnutrition in children exceeds 30%, Deaths exceed 2 per 10,000 per day. But wait — Gaza’s under siege, aid...

💔 A Broken Heart Speaks: David Grossman and the Genocide in Gaza

. David Grossman 📍 By Malik Mukhtar – blogger “ With immense pain and a broken heart —I now call it what it is: a genocide .” — David Grossman, interview in La Repubblica, August 1, 2025 When Israel’s conscience finally shouts genocide. Grossman— son lost to Israel’s wars , laureate of literature, beacon of moral clarity—has shattered his silence . He describes how he refused to use this word for years, until: “ What I’ve read… the images I’ve seen… speaking with people who were there” left him no choice. “ This word is an avalanche… it just keeps growing … and it brings even more destruction and suffering.” He also reflects: “ The occupation has corrupted us . I’m absolutely convinced that Israel’s curse began with the occupation of the Palestinian territories in 1967.” And yet the false savior complex persists: “ Had they [Palestinians] been more politically mature … reality could have been completely different....

🏗️ Corporate Complicity in Genocide: The Global Economy Behind Gaza’s Ruin.

📅 July 5, 2025 “We are witnessing not just genocide in Gaza—but a genocide made profitable.” — UN Special Rapporteur, A/HRC/59/23 “This report is written from the heart of darkness . It is penned with a broken hand from a broken land for a broken people . But its words are not broken . They are the words of law and of longing . They are the words of those who are not yet silenced . It is written for Palestinians , first and foremost. It is also addressed to those who remain silent , indifferent or complicit . And it is a call to action for those who are not.” — Introduction, UN Report A/HRC/59/23 In an unprecedented and unflinching report to the UN Human Rights Council, the Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territory has laid bare the truth that much of the world’s corporate, academic, and financial architecture is actively complicit in Israel’s occupation, apartheid, and now, genocide in Gaza. This isn’t just about military aggression . This is about the mac...

“Starving to Death, But Very Politely” — Gaza’s Famine and the Theater of Moral Collapse

📍Blog: ainnbeen.blogspot.com ✍️ By Malik Mukhtar | July 25, 2025 Let us all pause and thank the New York Times . After 21 months of bombing , blockade, and bullets , we finally have permission — no, confirmation — from America’s journal of record that yes, Gazans are, in fact, dying of starvation. The paper even sent reporters to Haifa, Jerusalem, and London — not Gaza, of course — to deliver the news. Skeletal toddlers, lactating mothers without milk, IV drips rationed like treasure — all neatly documented, sanitized, and wrapped in diplomatic passive voice. But fear not. The famine is not the fault of any one side. It's simply the result of “human failings , ” the report says. Ah yes, the tragedy of equal blame . A little siege here, a little looting there — and voilà! Starvation appears like a natural disaster . Like a famine tsunami . No perpetrators. Just poor little victims. Meanwhile, Israel, the world’s most moral occupier™ , is gallantly uploading videos of...

🩸 "If It Were Really Genocide, Wouldn’t More People Be Dead?" — The Cruel Logic of Bret Stephens

✍️ By Malik Mukhtar | July 23, 2025 So let’s all take a moment to appreciate the cold brilliance of Bret Stephens , New York Times columnist and self-appointed moral compass for the apocalypse. In his latest masterstroke of ethical reasoning , he argues that the claim of genocide in Gaza rings hollow — not because tens of thousands haven’t been killed , but because not enough have. “It may seem harsh to say, but there is a glaring dissonance to the charge that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.” “If the Israeli government’s intentions and actions are truly genocidal — if it is so malevolent that it is committed to the annihilation of Gazans — why hasn’t it been more methodical and vastly more deadly?” Ah yes, the ol’ “ not genocidal enough” defense — a timeless classic. You see, according to Stephens, genocide must be more “ methodical ,” more “ deadly .” A mere 60,000 deaths (as reported by Gaza’s health ministry) over two years of war doesn’t meet the qu...
