Where Aid Is a Death Sentence: Gaza’s Starvation Massacres and the Orders That Made It Happen

 


🕊️ Blog Post | By Malik Mukhtar | ainnbeen.blogspot.com | June 28, 2025


There are no battle lines in Gaza anymore.
There are breadlines.
And they are soaked in blood.

From June 1 to June 27, 2025, Gaza did not witness random tragedy—it endured a patterned, systematic massacre under the guise of aid distribution. And now, thanks to a damning Haaretz exposé dated June 27 by Nir Hasson, Yaniv Kubovich, and Bar Peleg, the world has undeniable testimony—not from Palestinians, not from activists, but from Israeli soldiers themselves—that these killings were not accidents. They were orders.

“We were explicitly told the area is a sterile zone… shoot anyone who enters.”
IDF Soldier to Haaretz

The testimonies are chilling. According to the report, Israeli soldiers deployed in Gaza were instructed to open fire on any Palestinian within 200 meters of humanitarian aid convoys—no questions asked, no threat assessment needed. Just presence near food became a death sentence.

They described the scenes near convoys with one searing phrase:
“Killing fields.”


📍 June 14: Kuwait Junction Massacre

A site meant for sustenance became a graveyard. 21 Palestinians, many of them unarmed civilians, were gunned down while waiting for food. There was no clash. No crossfire. Just bullets against hunger.

📍 June 20: Rafah Bloodshed

Another 11 Palestinians were executed by policy. Not accident. Not chaos. Policy. According to the soldiers, the same shoot-on-sight order was in effect.


These incidents are not isolated. They are not anomalies. They are the mechanics of a genocide livestreamed, executed in the open, and now confessed to by the very hands that pulled the triggers.

And yet, the IDF’s official response was not one of investigation, remorse, or humanity.
It was this:

“Baseless and detached from reality.”
— IDF Spokesperson’s Unit

But whose reality?
Not the child’s, who came running toward a loaf of bread and fell to sniper fire.
Not the mother’s, whose scarf billowed one last time before collapsing into dust.
Not the soldier’s, who now lives with the nightmare of following illegal, immoral commands under threat of punishment.

This isn’t war.
This is policy-driven famine warfare.
This is genocide by starvation, and now, by execution at aid lines.


🌍 The Deafening Silence

We live in a world with satellite-guided bombs and real-time footage, where these horrors unfold before millions of eyes daily. And still, we find ourselves suspended in an ethical blackout, where the only thing more routine than airstrikes is the world’s silence.

Why is speaking out against this branded as antisemitism?

Why must we watch global institutions tie themselves in linguistic knots to avoid one word: genocide?


🔥 Moral Collapse, Live on Camera

In Gaza, hope is rationed, but cruelty is not.

From humanitarian convoys turned execution zones…
To soldiers torn between duty and humanity…
To the international community watching starvation unfold like sports coverage—highlight reels of suffering, then business as usual…

This is the architecture of global complicity.
This is not just Israel’s war.
It is also our silence.


📣 If This Doesn’t Shake You…

Ask yourself—what does?

You saw the photos.
You heard the screams.
Now, you’ve read the confessions of the killers, not in a war tribunal, but in a national newspaper.

And still—still—they are starving.
Still—they are being shot for approaching bread.
Still—the UN is denied access.
Still—we scroll on.


Let the record show: Gaza did not die quietly.
The world watched.
And the rifles clicked not just for the hungry—but for humanity itself.

Rebranding Genocide: When Killing Learns New Words

  There are moments in history when crimes do not end — they simply learn new language. Gaza is living inside such a moment. The bombs have not stopped falling. The children have not stopped dying. The displaced have not stopped freezing in tents pitched atop rubble that was once their homes. What has changed is the vocabulary . And in the modern age, vocabulary is power . If you can rename atrocity, you can anesthetize conscience. First, it was called self-defense — a phrase emptied of meaning by its repetition. Then it became a war , despite the grotesque imbalance: one side armed with one of the most advanced militaries on earth, backed by the world’s most powerful empire ; the other a besieged civilian population without an army, navy, air force, tanks, or safe shelter. Now it is branded a ceasefire — a word invoked not to stop violence, but to conceal it. This is not peace. It is genocide with a quieter soundtrack. The Illusion of Restraint A slowed rate of killing is not m...

🔥 Gaza and the Grammar of Death: Achille Mbembe’s Necropolitics in the Age of Engineered Survival

By Malik Mukhtar (Full-Length Version with Mbembe Quotations) There are historical moments when the ordinary vocabulary of violence collapses . When “ conflict ,” “ occupation ,” and “ security ” no longer carry the weight required to explain what is unfolding before our eyes. Gaza is one such moment — a rupture in the moral architecture of the present. It is not simply a battlefield. It is an experiment in state-administered dying , in what Achille Mbembe named necropolitic s — the transformation of political power into the authority to dictate who may live and who must die. In Necropolitics (2003), Mbembe writes: “ The ultimate expression of sovereignty resides… in the power and the capacity to dictate who may live and who must die.” — Achille Mbembe, Necropolitics For Gaza, this is not theory. This is the daily grammar of existence. My book, Calculus of Survival: Necropolitics, Siege, and the Deionization of Life in Gaza , is situated squarely within this reality —...
