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.

Delivering the Dead: How the World Watches Gaza Bleed.

Delivering the Dead: How the World Watches Gaza Bleed “ I delivered a beheaded woman who was nine months pregnant. ” That’s not a horror-film script. That’s not medieval history. That is the testimony of an Australian medic standing in a Gaza hospital in 2025, describing what it means to “ practice medicine ” under Israeli bombardment. A nine-months-pregnant woman , decapitated , her body torn open so that the child she carried could be pulled out lifeless — and somehow this is still not enough to shake the comfortable democracies of the West into anything resembling a conscience. We should probably give the Nobel Prize for Creative Euphemism to the politicians who still call this “self-defense.” After all, there’s nothing quite as defensive as severing the head of an expectant mother and forcing foreign doctors to deliver her dead child in the rubble of what used to be a hospital . Bravo, civilization . The tragedy is not just the atrocity itself. It’s the smug perfo...

Britain’s Recognition of Palestine: A Century of Complicity in Disguise.

So we’ve reached this moment: Keir Starmer’s UK “ recognises the State of Palestine. ” Applause lines up. Speeches made. Headlines dazzled. But behind the pomp, the guns, the exports, the intelligence, the training — history rings out in mocking laughter. Because Britain has been complicit since day one. This recognition is not redemption . It’s theatre. 1. The Original Sin: Balfour Declaration Let’s go back. Because if you don’t know your history, you’ll be fooled by the future. On 2 November 1917 , Arthur James Balfour (Britain’s Foreign Secretary) wrote to Lord Rothschild, and officially declared: “His Majesty’s Government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object , it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine , or the rights and political sta...

Gaza’s Medical Apocalypse: Numbers, Neglect, and the Farce of “Access”

If you ever needed proof that statistics can be more damning than bombs, look at Gaza’s health crisis . Behind the headlines and hashtags lies a cascade of bodies and broken systems. We have numbers, we have reports, we have PDFs— and yet the world stares, unmoved, at the collapse. Below is your ruthless, numbers-soaked guide to the suffering —and the institutional failure—behind Gaza’s medical implosion . 1. The Health System Is Already Dead. We’re Just Counting the Corpse. According to WHO, “The Gaza Strip faces an unprecedented humanitarian crisis with rising mortality and widespread displacement.” Between 1 January and 31 August 2024 , local health authorities reported 18,900 deaths and 38,916 injuries . Women, children, and the elderly account for over 50 % of fatal casualties . More than 53 % of Gaza’s 36 hospitals were non-functional as of August 2024, and many of the partially functioning ones lacked adequate water or relied entirely on fuel generators. ...

The End of Zionism? Welcome to the Funeral Nobody Wants to Admit Is Overdue

Of course. Haaretz recently published an opinion piece by Ithamar Handelman -Smith titled “ Some Say It’s the End of Zionism, and I Say That’s All Right .” And what impeccable timing: as Israel carries out a near-two-year campaign of siege, famine, and bombardment in Gaza — slaughtering families, burying aid workers with their ambulances, and literally starving children to death — someone in Israel finally whispers the unspeakable: maybe Zionism, that 20th-century project of “ Jewish salvation ,” has outlived its moral shelf life. Bravo. The house is burning, bodies are scattered in the street, and the philosopher shows up with a garden hose . Zionism: Success Story or Crime Scene? Handelman-Smith argues that Zionism achieved its success : a Jewish state, a safe haven, a fortress against the ghosts of Europe’s crimes . But like every “ success story ” drenched in other people’s blood , it didn’t age well. What began as refuge turned into domination; what was called “ ...

The Ceasefire of Exhaustion: When Empires Collapse from Within

By Malik Mukhtar — ainnbeen.blogspot.com Two years after Gaza was first set on fire , the war that began with biblical vengeance has stumbled to an exhausted ceasefire . On October 9, 2025 , Israel and Hamas — after endless carnage, famine, and rubble — have signed the first phase of a ceasefire agreement mediated in Sharm el-Sheikh . Trump called it a “ historic peace plan. ” History may call it a truce of attrition — a war that collapsed under the weight of its own hubris. What the Ceasefire Says — and What It Doesn’t Under the agreement, Israeli forces are to pull back to a designated “yellow line” within 24 hours of cabinet ratification. Hamas, in turn, will release all remaining hostages — alive or dead — within 72 hours after the withdrawal. Israel will free about 2,000 Palestinian prisoners, though it made sure to exclude political figures like Marwan Barghouti , whose freedom would remind the world that Palestine still breathes. Humanitarian convoys — food,...
