The Genocide Is Not Only Televised

The Genocide Is Not Only Televised—It’s Engineered

“Starvation is the weapon of choice.”
— Chris Hedges, June 29, 2025

In Gaza, genocide doesn’t need gas chambers. It needs control over food. It needs silence. It needs us to look away.

In March 2025, Israel and its Western allies accomplished what months of siege and saturation bombing couldn’t: they dismantled UNRWA, Gaza’s last remaining lifeline, severing access to food, medicine, and basic dignity. Replacing it was not a humanitarian effort—but a cruel performance.

Enter the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF)—a front of war masquerading as aid. GHF was crafted not by relief professionals but by Mossad-linked contractors, CIA-linked security firms, and mercenaries. Its CEO is Rev. Johnnie Moore, a Christian Zionist with close ties to Netanyahu and Trump. This was never about food. It was about control.

To cement the illusion of international legitimacy, the U.S. appointed Jake Wood—a decorated former Marine and humanitarian—to oversee GHF’s operations. But what Wood saw broke him. Just three weeks into his assignment, he resigned in protest, penning a haunting New York Times op-ed that sent shockwaves through global diplomatic circles.

“We are not feeding the hungry—we are corralling them. We are watching them die.”

Wood’s words are a searing indictment of the Western-led charade. But more damning is what Israel did next.

Gaza’s “Aid Sites”: A Killing Field in Disguise

According to a Haaretz investigation published June 27, IDF commanders ordered soldiers to shoot into crowds of unarmed Palestinians at GHF aid distribution hubs. The soldiers called it “Operation Salted Fish”—a sadistic nod to Squid Game, where the desperate are slaughtered while chasing hope.

“It’s a killing field,” an IDF soldier told Haaretz.
“No crowd control. No tear gas. Just live fire. Mortars. Heavy machine guns.”

The statistics are numbing:

580 civilians killed,
4,216 wounded—
all while queuing for food. Many were children. Many were mothers. Most were unarmed. All were starving.

And Israel knew it.

From UNRWA to GHF: Starvation as Strategy

Before the genocide, UNRWA operated 400 aid points. Now, there are just four—run by GHF, protected by American and Israeli guns, and surrounded by mercenaries and thugs. Palestinians, once dignified and self-sufficient, are now herded like livestock. They're forced to crawl through rubble, dodging sniper fire and stepping over corpses—just for a bag of rice or a can of beans.

And yet, this horror isn’t without historical precedent.

Chris Hedges draws chilling parallels between Gaza and past genocides:

Nazi tactics in the Warsaw Ghetto,
The Holodomor in Ukraine,
The Armenian genocide,
Bosnia,
Sudan,
Guatemala.

In each case, starvation was weaponized to break a people—physically, spiritually, and politically.

Gaza is now that frontline.

A Testimony from the Abyss

Yousef al-Ajouri, a father of seven, shared with Middle East Eye his harrowing journey to a GHF hub. He left at night, crawling alongside elderly women and children, hoping to reach a distribution site under sniper fire. He saw a boy shot dead for using a flashlight. He watched another man bleed to death, untouched and unrescued. When he finally reached aid, he fought off a knife-wielding stranger to secure just four cans of beans.

Hours later, at al-Awda Hospital, he saw 35 bodies lined in a room—all shot in the head or chest while waiting for aid.

Jake Wood’s Conscience, Our Indictment

Wood’s resignation and his NYT op-ed have confirmed what Palestinians have long screamed to a deaf world: GHF is a mechanism of death, not life.

Even Chris Gunness, former UNRWA spokesperson, called it out:

“This is not humanitarian relief. This is aid-washing genocide.”

Israel has reduced Gaza to a moonscape of rubble and sewage. The final obstacle to total conquest isn’t Hamas. It isn’t resistance. It’s the existence of Palestinians. And starvation is how Israel plans to erase them.

Silence Is Complicity. Knowledge Is Action.

Do not look away.

If you say you stood with Bosnia…
If you mourned the Warsaw Ghetto…
If you cried for Sudan, Armenia, or Ukraine…
Gaza is your mirror.

“We open fire early in the morning if someone tries to get in line from a few hundred meters away… There’s no danger to the forces… No return fire. No enemy. No weapons.”
— IDF soldier to Haaretz

Israel and its enablers have chosen hunger as their final weapon. We must choose humanity as our final stand.

When the Warning Comes from the General Moshe Ya’alon, Jewish Supremacy, and the Echo Nobody Wanted to Hear

History has a cruel sense of irony. Sometimes the most devastating indictments do not come from the oppressed, the bombed, the buried, or the silenced—but from the very architects of power who once swore they were different. This week, that indictment came from Moshe Ya’alon : former Israeli Defense Minister, former IDF Chief of Staff, lifelong pillar of Israel’s security establishment. Not a dissident poet. Not a radical academic. Not a Palestinian survivor. A general. And what he said shattered the last polite illusion. “ The ideology of Jewish supremacy that has become dominant in the Israeli government is reminiscent of Nazi race theory.” Pause there. Sit with it. This was not shouted at a protest . It was not scribbled on a placard. It was written calmly, deliberately, after attending a Holocaust Remembrance ceremony —then reading reports of Jewish settlers attacking Palestinians , blocking ambulances , fracturing skulls , burning homes. Never Again, apparently, now ...

A Rabbi Against the State: When Faith Refuses Power

In a world where identity is weaponized and religion is drafted into political armies, the sight of an ultra-Orthodox rabbi standing beside Palestinian flags unsettles nearly everyone. Yet there stands — black coat, beard, sidelocks — calmly declaring something that scrambles modern assumptions: “ Judaism is not Zionism.” For him, this is not rebellion . It is obedience . Affiliated with , a small and highly controversial Haredi sect, Rabbi Beck represents a theological current that predates modern nationalism. His argument is not secular. It is not progressive. It is not post-modern. It is ancient . And that is precisely the point. The Interview That Disturbs Categories In one widely circulated long-form interview, the exchange unfolds with almost disarming simplicity. Interviewer: Rabbi Beck, how can you oppose Israel as a Jewish rabbi? Rabbi Beck: Judaism and Zionism are two completely different things. Judaism is a religion. Zionism is a political movement founded little more ...

“Not Auschwitz — Yet Still Genocide”: When Israeli Holocaust Historians Break the Silence on Gaza

There are moments in history when the most unsettling truths do not come from one’s enemies, but from within. From those who know the past most intimately. From those whose moral authority is built not on ideology, but on memory. In December 2025, two of Israel’s most respected Holocaust and genocide scholars— Prof. Daniel Blatman and Prof. Amos Goldberg of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem—published a deeply unsettling opinion article in Haaretz . What they argued was not casual, rhetorical, or activist hyperbole. It was a grave historical judgment. Their conclusion was stark: What is happening in Gaza is not Auschwitz. But it belongs to the same family of crimes: genocide. Why This Voice Matters Blatman and Goldberg are not marginal figures. They are historians whose professional lives have been devoted to studying Nazi crimes, genocide mechanisms, memory, and moral responsibility . Their scholarship is rooted in the very catastrophe that shaped modern Jewish iden...

Even the Dead Are Not Safe: How Power Desecrates Graves and Calls It Security

There is a final dignity that every civilization, every faith, every moral tradition claims to respect: the dignity of the dead. In Gaza and the West Bank, even that has been revoked. Homes can be flattened. Children can be starved. Hospitals can be reduced to ash. These crimes, we are told, are “tragic necessities.” But graves ? What threat does a corpse pose to a modern army armed with drones , tanks , and nuclear ambiguity ? Apparently, enough to be bulldozed. Graves as Enemy Infrastructure According to detailed reporting by Al Jazeera , Israeli forces in Gaza did not merely fight the living — they waged war on cemeteries . Tombstones were crushed. Graves were excavated . Human remains were scattered, mixed, lost . Families returned not to mourning, but to forensic horror: bones without names, names without bodies. This was not collateral damage . This was not crossfire. This was methodical excavation . Heavy machinery was deployed to retrieve the body of one ...

Don’t Spoil the Show: Gaza, Davos, and the Business Class of Peace

There is a rule at Davos—unwritten, but strictly enforced. Reality is bad for business. Yossi Alpher learned this the hard way. Sitting on a panel at a luxury resort near the Dead Sea, surrounded by ministers, executives, and conflict “experts,” he made the unforgivable mistake of speaking honestly. Grim facts. Grim assessments. No PowerPoint optimism. No Riviera renderings. No applause. A prominent Israeli industrialist later pulled him aside and explained the crime: “ Don’t spoil the show . The idea is to radiate optimism that nourishes an investment climate . It’s all about business. No room for realism .” That sentence may be the most accurate peace-process doctrine of the 21st century. Phase II: Now With Billionaires Fast forward to Davos again. This time, the stage is Gaza—or rather, Gaza™ , the investment opportunity. Trump’s “Board of Peace,” staffed by billionaires and brand managers of global destruction , announces Phase II of a Gaza peace plan with all the s...
